Applying to Birches School

We seek curious, motivated students who will thrive in our inquiry-based, collaborative learning environment. The admission process is designed to ensure that the applicant will both thrive at Birches and contribute to our classrooms. Admission to Birches School is based on the written application, previous teachers’ assessments, and visits with the prospective student and parents.

Our office is happy to connect with you and answer any questions about the admissions process. We look forward to getting to know your family!
