Getting Started at The Rock School

The pathway to flourishing starts here.

Our admissions process is designed to be straightforward and transparent, ensuring that every family can navigate it with ease. Here’s how you can start your journey with us…

Step 1: Request an Information Packet

Step 3: Submit an Application

We welcome applications for various grade levels with specific considerations for each category:

Now that you’ve chosen the right program, proceed with your application.

Step 4: Admissions Review

Once your application is submitted, it enters our Admissions Review process where our committee evaluates each application carefully to ensure that prospective students meet the academic and personal qualities we value at The Rock School.

Step 5: Educational Consultation

If your application meets our criteria and there is a projected seat available, you will receive an invitation for an Educational Consultation. This step provides an opportunity for both parents and students to engage with school leaders and discuss educational goals, expectations, and how The Rock School can support your child’s learning journey.

Educational Consultations are only offered to families who have submitted a complete application and for whom there is a projected opening in the desired grade level.

Step 6: Admissions Offer & Enrollment

Following the Educational Consultation, eligible students are placed into our waiting pool. If a seat becomes available in the desired grade level, an offer of admissions will be sent to the family.

Applicants in the waiting pool receive priority consideration in any subsequent admissions cycles.
