Frequently Asked Questions
Here are the questions we hear most often about the admission process.

Parent Reviews
Choosing a school for your child is such a deeply personal decision that can feel very fraught especially when selecting your child’s first experience with formal education. As parents, we do our research on teaching philosophy, staff to child ratios, cost, and other important variables. Those things matter. But, at the end of the day, I think what we all want is a place where our child can be seen, heard and understood. Cedars has given my children exactly that. A place where they are deeply seen and encouraged to be exactly who they are. All while learning letters and numbers yes, but more than that, while learning to explore the world around them with curiosity and confidence that if they don’t know something yet, they can, and will, learn. In short, Cedars fostered a sense of wonder and has given my kids the tools to never stop exploring the world around them!
