Admission
We are delighted to have you consider Wildwood School for your son or daughter's pre-college education. Choosing a new school is an exciting, serious decision that takes time and consideration. Children thrive when they are in the school that is right for them. When families are well-matched philosophically and students are well-matched academically, socially, and emotionally, the partnership between home and school is at its finest, and the educational journey is a successful one. In order to make thoughtful decisions, it's important to visit and learn about the school. Some things to keep in mind:
• Consider your child's personality and
interests. Wildwood students are
self-motivated, eager, and enthusiastic
learners who bring a wide range of talents
and interests to the school.
• Take into account your family's values. At
Wildwood, ethics and values are woven into
the curriculum through Life Skills in
elementary and Habits of Mind and Heart in
middle and upper school.
• Think about long-term goals for your child.
Wildwood's curriculum prepares students for
success in college and beyond. We are proud
that 100 percent of our seniors are accepted
into respected colleges and universities.
• Remember practical matters, like afterschool
care. Wildwood Elementary has both
afterschool and enrichment programs, which
includes extracurricular classes.
