If this is your first time considering an independent school, you’re not alone.  More and more families are seeking alternatives in education.

We know that no one school is a perfect fit for every child. Choosing the right school is a big decision. It’s one that involves the entire family. At Aspengrove, our admissions process gives families an up-close look at the school’s philosophy and day-to-day activities of student life. Here’s how it works:

Is Aspengrove the right fit for your family?

Admissions Procedures

1. Meet with Mrs. Elisabeth Reay, Admissions Director. Discuss how attending Aspengrove may benefit your child. Both parents must attend this meeting. Students in Grade 4 and older are also asked to attend.
2. Arrange a classroom observation. Parents and students sit in on a class together. Students in Grade 4 and up are strongly encouraged to visit a classroom for an entire morning.
3. Call a parent of the school. Aspengrove provides parent references.
4. Complete the application form. Submit with a non-refundable application fee of $200 per child and a copy of the child’s most recent report card (Grade 1 and up).
5. The admissions office will notify applicants, in writing, of their status within two weeks of the above steps being completed.

Aspengrove’s admission decisions are based on academic achievement (or potential), the qualities of each individual applicant, the determination of ‘fit’ of school to child and child to school, and the availability of space at each grade level.
