For over a decade, at the end of summer, we've gathered together a diverse group of independent school directors to talk about their schools' plans and admissions process for the coming admission season, enabling families to meet with numerous schools in one venue and get a head start on their applications.

This year, our 12th Annual Kindergarten Admissions Panel and School Fair will once again be virtual via Zoom and happens on Tuesday & Wednesday, August 30-31. Everyone with a four year-old who would like to apply to kindergarten for the 2023/2024 school year should attend this event.
The fair begins with the virtual Kindergarten Admissions Panel Discussion on Tuesday, August 30, 2022 at 10:00am EST followed by individual school sessions each half hour from 11:30am on Tuesday, to the end of the day on Wednesday.

Both the fair and panel discussion are free for families to attend but you must register ahead of time. Click here to register today!
