Beechwood Admissions Policy
The Process
The admissions process includes:
- A completed application form:
- Interviews with parents
- A student visit to Beechwood
- A possible trial period during the summer program
- Review of previous academic transcripts
- Student screening to determine the student’s willingness to learn, behavior, development and academic levels and whether the student’s needs match Beechwood’s program.
Kindergarten applicants must be five by September 1st, and Kinder Prep applicants by December 1st of the year of school application.
Beechwood is a unique school with high standards and objectives that can be achieved only through a partnership for success between staff and parents/guardians.
Priority admissions are given to children and families who reside in the Belle Haven area of Menlo Park and East Palo Alto.
