The following groups will be offered placement, in this order:
-
Currently enrolled students, continuing the following year

Applicant pool

September to December applicants, randomly sorted

Age balance in multi-age classrooms, and gender balance in multi-age and two-year-old rooms, are considered when offering placement

If I am interested in receiving financial aid or tuition assistance what should I do?
The option to apply for tuition assistance is available to you once the MDS application is complete. If you choose to apply for tuition assistance at a later date, not directly after you have submitted your application, you can re-visit www.mytads.com before the deadline and apply for
tuition assistance.
Do I need to reapply if I already applied for the previous school year but was not offered a spot?
Yes. If you were not offered a spot for a particular school year and wish to re-apply for the following school year, you must submit another application, beginning on September 1st.
Does my younger child qualify for sibling/alumni preference if my older child has already moved on to another school?
Yes, alumni siblings still qualify for sibling preference. We're delighted to welcome your family back to the school!
