The goals of the admissions process are:
 

To inform prospective families about Miquon.   How does the school put its educational philosophy   into practice? What experiences will children have if they come to Miquon?  What are the rewards and expectations of joining the Miquon community?  We urge families to review the information contained in the Miquon brochure and its supplement, to speak with the Director of Admissions, and - most important - to visit the school before making an application.

To determine whether Miquon is the right environment for the child.  We believe that most children will thrive at Miquon, and also that there are some for whom our environment and style are not well-suited.   We make arrangements for each applicant to visit Miquon, and we seek a recommendation from her/his current teacher.  The child’s cognitive, social, and emotional development and needs are considered.  We expect that parents will share information about their child that will help us determine whether or not Miquon is a good match.

The application process varies for different grade levels.  In brief, it consists of the following steps:

October onwards:

• Parents visit campus by special appointment or at an Open House  (recommended).
