We’re so glad you’re considering Spanish With Sarah for your child.
SWS is a joyful, nurturing dual immersion school where students grow academically, socially, and linguistically through meaningful experiences every day.
Our Admissions team is here to support you throughout the process. Whether you’re exploring dual immersion for the first time or looking for a school community where your child can truly thrive, we are excited to help you learn more about what makes SWS such a special place.
All families begin by completing our online Initial Application, available on our website. If you are a new family, we encourage you to attend a group tour as soon as possible. Applications are date- and time-stamped to help determine placement priority.
Current families receive priority enrollment until February 1.
After February 1, new family applications are reviewed in the order received, with priority given to families who have attended a tour and submitted their initial application.
Students applying for grades Kindergarten through 5th will be asked to complete a short readiness assessment. After we review your initial application, you will receive an email with a link to sign up for an assessment time.
Once a placement is available, families will receive an email confirming their spot. This email will include a link to complete the final registration packet, which finalizes enrollment for the upcoming school year.
Our team is here to support you at every step and ensure the process is smooth and welcoming.
