We look forward to meeting each applicant during their visit to Wilson. This helps us assess your child's development, language, social skills, and academic background. It also helps us to determine if Wilson is the right fit for your child.

For Pre-Kindergarten (3 years old) and Junior Kindergarten (4 years old) applicants: Join a small group playdate on Saturday mornings.
For Senior Kindergarten applicants: Schedule a half-day visit.
For first - sixth grade applicants: Spend a full school day at Wilson.

Please schedule visits through MyWilson under the "Admissions Progress" tab.

Forms & Notifications

Teacher Referral Form

School Records Release Form

We also need an official copy of records from your child’s current school or program, if currently enrolled in school. Please complete a Records Release Form and upload it to your MyWilson account. You can also access the form under the "Admissions Progress" tab. We would prefer a full semester report card. We will send the Release Form to your child's school in January (if applicable).

Admissions Notifications

Families who submit their application by the late January deadline and complete all admissions steps by the end of February will receive an email decision notification in mid-March on the common notification date at 4 PM. Families who are offered a contract will have a few weeks to accept and submit along with a 10% enrollment deposit to secure your child's spot. This deposit also serves as your first tuition payment.

Applications received after the deadline will be considered on a rolling basis starting in April, depending on availability. Tuition assistance funds are limited in April through August.
