Welcome
Thank you for your interest in Synergy School. In an effort to protect the health and safety of our community during the pandemic, admissions events will be conducted virtually this year. We invite you to explore our website and attend an online orientation 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.
Here's how to get started:
The first step in the admissions process is to complete an inquiry form and schedule an online orientation with Admissions Director Rita Franklin.
Our open house is usually held the second Saturday of December. Due to the pandemic, this event is currently on hold.
Once you have attended an orientation, a link to our online application is emailed to you. The deadline to apply for the 2021-2022 school year is Friday, January 8, 2021.
Once an application has been submitted, families should expect an email to schedule a 20-minute parent interview via Zoom conferencing. By mid-January, expect another email to schedule a virtual visit and interview for your child.
Teacher evaluations for all grade levels and student transcripts for 1st through 8th grade are due no later than Friday, January 29, 2021.
Families are asked to sign the applicable forms below and give them to their child's teacher.
