Admissions Process

The Community for Learning takes great care to ensure that our school is a good fit for our students and their families. In order to do so, we take time to meet with parents or guardians to make sure you agree with our educational philosophy before we begin admissions testing.

Important Note: Students applying to TCFL must have the appropriate age for their grade level by August 31st:

  • Early Childhood
    • Preschool: 3 - 4 yrs
    • Pre-kinder: 4 - 5 yrs
    • Kinder: 5 - 6 yrs
  • Elementary
    • 1st grade – 6 years old
