The admission process, step by step:

At Bertschi we make every effort to assist families each step of the way and to help them determine which school is best for their child.

• Contact the Admission Office to schedule a school tour and request an application packet, or apply online. Application packets will begin mailing in September and tours begin in late October and are offered weekly through mid-January.

• Attend our Open House for Admission Information November 10th, 7pm. (optional)

• Complete and submit the application and fee to the school by the deadline January 12, 2012. Early Bird applications are due December 16th for priority visit scheduling. Applications and fees can be sumitted online!

• Complete a Financial Aid Application if needed.

• Forward the Teacher Evaluation and Request for Records forms to the appropriate individuals at your child’s current school.

• After we receive your completed application we will contact you to schedule a school visit for your child.

Please note: Children must be 4 years old by Sept. 1 for pre-kindergarten and 5 years old by Sept. 1 for kindergarten.
