Welcome to Wise School
I am so happy that you have chosen to learn more about Wise School. We understand that finding the right school for your child is an important decision for your family. Similarly, getting to know your family throughout the admission process helps us identify the students and families that we believe will help fulfill the vision for our School – to be a place where children are inspired to learn deeply, be creative, experience wholeness, and make great happen.
The very best way for you to learn more about Wise School is to attend one of our two Open Houses during the fall. However, if you want to learn more about Wise School at any time throughout the year, please feel free to contact me at any time.
Thank you for your interest in our School and I look forward to meeting you soon!
