The process begins with parents attending an Open house to tour the school and receive an Admission Packet of information. Next the family submits an application, including a parent inventory, school records, and recommendations, and results from either the Wechsler or Stanford-Binet IQ tests. All parents are members of the non-profit corporation that governs the school. Parents elect Trustees to guide the mission of the school at the annual meeting of the Corporation each spring. Parents are active volunteers, lending their support to the Admissions Office, the Sage Parent Association, and committees of the Board of Trustees.
Parents are frequent volunteers in the classroom and on field trips.
The Sage Parent Association meets monthly to discuss issues and plans for social gatherings and support of classroom activities. At The Sage School students have a variety of clubs. Clubs are organized each year and have included chorus, Student Council, Art Club Chess Club, Girls' Club, Computer Club, Tae Kwan Do Class, Yearbook, and the Judicial Committee. Each year students participate in a school-wide Science Fair. Students are encouraged to explore a topic of special interest.
