Whether it happens in the fall, winter, or spring, changing schools is a significant decision for any family. Making a move mid-year can feel especially challenging and stressful. Sometimes families relocate unexpectedly due to a job transfer; other times, the school year isn’t unfolding as hoped for a child. Whatever the reason for considering a change, The Saklan School welcomes students throughout the school year when space is available in the grade of interest. Our admissions team works closely with families to ensure a thoughtful and supportive transition, helping new students feel confident and connected.
Families considering an immediate transfer are encouraged to begin with a campus tour. While no single school is the right fit for every family, a tour allows parents to experience Saklan firsthand and determine whether they can envision their child thriving in our community. If families feel encouraged by what they learn, they may then submit an online application. As part of the application process, each applicant also visits Saklan, allowing us to get to know the student and support a thoughtful transition.
Families can begin our application process here. Once all of the required paperwork is submitted, we will set up a student visit. After completion of the application and visit, the Admissions Committee meets to make an enrollment decision.
