At least one parent/guardian must attend a campus tour of our elementary school. This is a parent only tour. A link to our online application will only be sent once a parent/guardian has attended a tour. Tours are held on select Tuesday and Thursday mornings from 9:15 to 11:30 a.m. by appointment only. To make a reservation, please contact Tisa Habas.

If you are applying for kindergarten, we recommend touring the school in the early spring prior to the application deadline so that you have the widest choice of interview dates and times.

Although it is not a required part of our elementary admission process, we invite prospective elementary parents/guardians to also visit our middle and upper school. To schedule a tour, please contact Tisa Habas.

Once you have toured the school, you will receive an email invitation to apply online. The application fee is $125 and is non-refundable. Fee waiver available upon request. Please contact the admission office for more details. All kindergarten applications, in order to be considered for our priority deadline, must be submitted by Nov. 4, 2016. The priority deadline allows for greater flexibility with interview scheduling. It does not affect admission decisions. All 1st through 5th grade applications should be submitted by Dec. 9, 2016. 

Applications received after Dec. 9, 2016 will be placed on hold.

Once we have received your application, we will contact you to schedule an interview. Interviews (for kindergarten through 5th grade applicants) are held between September and January. Interviews are scheduled Monday through Friday during school hours and are on a first come, first served basis.

Once we receive your application, you will receive information about registering for a student visit day.

Kindergarten student visit days will take place on Saturday, Jan. 7, 2017 and Saturday, Jan. 21, 2017. These 90-minute sessions offer small groups of applicants the chance to participate in preschool like activities and include a screening for kindergarten readiness.

First graders will be scheduled to visit on Saturday, Jan. 21, 2017. The 90-minute visit offers applicants the chance to participate in small-group kindergarten activities and includes a screening for academic readiness.

Visits for 2nd through 5th grade applicants are scheduled during the school day. Students spend a full day with a class in their current grade and complete an academic skills screening with a learning specialist.

Kindergarten applicants: Wildwood will mail the Kindergarten Applicant Recommendation Form to your current preschool. The preschool will return the form directly to Wildwood.
