Admissions Procedures

The Diener School will assess each applicant based on their individual strengths and challenges. Once an application is complete, our admissions committee will determine if an applicant will be invited for a classroom visit or a small group playdate. Our application deadline is January 27, 2012 to be considered as an on time application. Any application received beyond these dates will be considered on a rolling admissions basis only.

All testing, checklists, and required assessments are found on our admission checklist.

General Admissions Policy

The admissions process requires a great deal of open yet confidential communication between families, schools, professionals and Diener staff. In the interest of ensuring an optimal educational experience for our students, we require that all questions must be answered with complete honesty and all of the information required during the admissions process must be disclosed. This includes any significant change with the applicant’s medical, social/emotional and/or educational status from the date your application is received until your child’s first day of school at Diener. The Diener School reserves the right to deny admission or remove for expulsion if there are any material disclosures that were not made.
