The admission processApplying to an independent school can seem like a daunting process. It needn’t be.

 

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.

 

The admission process, step by step:

  • Contact the Admission Office to schedule a school tour and request an application packet.
  • Complete and return the application form and fee to the school.
  • Request and 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 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.

 

Bertschi is a peanut- and tree nut-free school. Learn more about our policy and how we support children with life-threatening nut allergies.
