Notes for Prospective Students
Families who express interest in the rigorous full-year academic
program at Morningside Academy will initially be interviewed by
telephone. We will ask questions about your child's current
performance in school and of course, answer your questions as well.
MA is not a school for students with significant behavior or
emotional problems or developmental delays. Once we have sent you a
packet of information including general information, professional
journal articles and book chapters about our school, we offer
individualized tours of the classroom. If we think that your child
would benefit from our program, we typically have the student visit
for a half day that consists of a snapshot assessment, a morning of
classes, lunch and recess. Like all students currently attending
our school, your child would participate and receive a Daily Report
Card. We end the visit with a meeting with you, your child, and one
of our directors. Once our administrator and the teacher have had a
chance to discuss your child's participation, we can confidently
discuss enrollment. There is no application packet required prior
to admissions. If a suitable opening is available and an applicant
is well suited to the structure, frequent feedback, and positive
support offered at our school, that's all there is to it! We have
an open enrollment process throughout the year should an opening
occur. Regular school year begins in September. Students beginning
in the fall are required to attend two weeks of summer school as a
transition. Students entering the fall program will be asked to
attend a minimum of two weeks of the summer program. In addition,
deposits for the fall program will be collected at the time of
enrollment. If you would like to visit, contact Alan Szech,
Director of Admissions, at (206) 709-9500 or
Alan@morningsideacademy.org.
