Informational Tour and Interview
Our private school admission process begins with an informational tour and interview for both parents. Please call the school office to schedule an appointment. If you would only like a tour of our school, “Willow Walks” are scheduled the first Friday of every month at 12:00 noon. Please call to reserve your spot (772) 770-0758.
Application and Transcripts
An application form is included in your information packet, whether for preschool or the K-8 program. Please fill out the relevant application for your child and submit it with a $50 nonrefundable fee. After we receive your application and current transcripts (for children in 1st grade and above) we will schedule a class visit for your child.

Class Visit
While classes are in session The Willow School requires a class visit for applying students to experience our classrooms, as well as giving The Willow School staff an opportunity to fully evaluate each student.
Children entering preschool and Kindergarten are invited to visit for the morning. Children entering grades 1-7 spend an entire day.
During this time, your child will be an active participant in the classroom and will engage in all activities. When classes are not in session we will substitute a one-hour student interview for the classroom visit.
Acceptance
The Willow School's private school Admissions Committee will review your child’s current transcripts as well as the evaluation conducted by the staff during his/her visit. You will be notified of our decision within two weeks of the classroom visit or interview.
Registration
After your child has been accepted we ask for a $100 non-refundable preschool registration and a $500 non-refundable registration fee for children K-8 along with a signed contract within one month of the date of your acceptance. This fee will reserve a place for your child and be applied toward registration and book fees.
Transcripts
After acceptance, please ask your child’s previous school to send copies of all tests, records and transcripts. These are required for our records and will allow us to more fully prepare for your child.
Waiting List
If a child has been accepted through this private school's admissions process but the class is full, the child will be placed on a waiting list. The non-refundable $50 application fee will hold the child’s place on the waiting list.
Other Information
A child may enter Kindergarten if he or she is five (5) years old on or before September 1 of the current year, unless pre-approved by The Willow School Director.
