Parents will be notified of acceptance by mid-April. All students are assessed prior to entering Casa di Mir. This is not a formal test, but a visit to the classroom, observation of the student and conversation with the teachers. Primary students are observed in the classroom setting. They may choose jobs to do and may be asked specific questions about numbers, letters, reading, etc.
Parents wait on the dock during the assessment.
Elementary students are given a more formal evaluation, with tasks to complete and a conversation with the teachers. Classroom Observation A visit to the school by the parents is required prior to acceptance. Appointments may be made through the office for a school tour and classroom observation. We ask that primary-age students not attend this observation during a regular school session as it is disruptive to the young students in the class. You may arrange to bring a Primary applicant to the classroom after school.
