After you’ve applied and once all items have been received, the Admissions team will meet to review all information.
Upon review, and the decision to continue the process, we will contact you to schedule a student visit (“shadow day”), which will be followed by an interview with the parent(s)/guardian(s).
During the shadow day, your student will be paired with a current student in their grade; they will attend classes and are encouraged to participate as much as they are comfortable doing so.
Faculty members will complete a simple observation/evaluation of the visiting student at the end of the shadow day.
Their observations of the student’s strengths and needs, to answer any questions the family may have about becoming a Greenwood student, and to provide a more robust understanding of the prospective student. Again, we believe your student is more than just details on paper!
If requested, Greenwood School will provide information electronically to parents. Our Admissions Associate will follow up to see if there are additional questions and schedule a tour. Upon completion of the tour we will provide an application for you to complete, and we will request the following documentation for evaluation:

Greenwood School partners with multiple private foundations who offer financial assistance to families for students with specific learning differences.
