Admissions
We are now touring for the current school year as well as the 2012-2013 school year. We request that new families interested in admission make an appointment for a tour of the school. Preschool tours are held daily in the morning and Kindergarten, Kindergarten Enrichment and 1st Grade tours are also held daily in the afternoon.
As a parent, you will have the opportunity to see our school environment, meet the staff and receive the admissions information package. We accept new student applications upon completion of the tour. Parents seeking enrollment will return the completed Application with Program Request form along with a non-refundable registration fee. At this time, we will verify the child's birth certificate.
We will mail notification of acceptance and placement for fall admission by mid-March along with an acceptance contract. Applications for admission received during the current school year will be acted upon promptly based on availability. Following acceptance, parents will be required to submit the completed contract along with the final month’s tuition as a deposit. This completes the admissions process.
Once admitted, an enrollment package will be provided containing all forms and required submissions. Prior to the first day of school, we must receive your completed Health Information Form (including an immunization record) along with any other required forms.
For currently enrolled Golden Pond School students, re-admission for the upcoming fall school year will begin immediately following January parent-teacher conferences. Current student re-enrollment will be considered before beginning the admissions process for new students. Updated forms, including the annual Health Information Form, will be required prior to the first day of school.
Please feel free to call the school at 703-723-7663 or email admissions@goldenpondschool.com to schedule a tour or to gather any other information.

"I just wanted to write you both a letter thanking you for everything you do. [Our son] absolutely loves school and [my husband] and I are so amazed at how well [he] has adjusted. I’m sure you both know that [our son] is rather shy. He always liked to stay home and hated to socialize with other kids. I tried to put him in classes but he was always scared of the other kids and would not participate in anything... [He] has transformed into a new child."
