Welcome
Thank you for your interest in Synergy School. We invite you to explore our website and attend an orientation and tour in the fall to learn more about our progressive, hands-on approach to education.
We are an inclusive community and actively recruit a diversity of learners and a diversity of families. The criteria we use to evaluate applicants includes academic and social readiness for each grade level, philosophical match between the school and families, and willingness on the part of families to support and participate in our community.

The first step in the admissions process is to complete an inquiry form. We have ended our parent orientations for the season, but will place you on our late inquiry list. Should there be an opening in the future, we will call you to begin the admissions process with us.
Please email admissions@synergyschool.org if you have any questions.
Our open house is scheduled on Saturday, December 11, 2021 from 11:00 AM to 1:00 PM.
