Admissions Information

Bonjour et bienvenue! We look forward to getting to know you and your child.

The best way to learn more about the Teddy Bear Club is to take a tour. Families have the option of visiting the school for in-person tours, or meeting a member of our admissions team on Zoom for a virtual tour. Additionally, we are always available by phone or email to answer any questions you may have.

Scheduling a Tour of TBC

We are offering tours for families interested in enrolling their children for the upcoming 2026-27 school year. In-person tours are conducted individually, during the school day. You will visit classrooms and tour the campus, all while learning more about our philosophy and curriculum. We encourage you to bring your child along for this visit. Virtual tours are similarly one-on-one, and hosted by a member of our admissions team. We will take you on a photo tour of the school, and share photos and videos of classroom activities while answering your questions.

To schedule a tour, please complete the form on this page.

All applications for new families received before December 15, 2025 will be processed at the same time, after we complete admissions for our returning students and their siblings. Placement decisions will be sent to families in mid-January. Any applications received after December 15 will be reviewed on a rolling basis and based on any remaining availability.

The school conducts itself in a professional -- even elegant -- yet down-to-earth manner. I can't recommend it highly enough.
