You can arrange your appointment by calling Admissions at (415) 897-2510 or emailing Marlon Morales at marlon.morales@gslsnovato.org
Once you decide to move forward with your application, you can complete and submit the K-5 Application along with the application fee of $50.00.
In addition to the online application, we also require that your child’s current teacher complete the Teacher Recommendation Form and have it returned directly to us. If you are applying for Grade 1 - 5, please submit copies of your child’s progress reports, report cards, and standardized test scores from his or her previous school.
If you are applying for the incoming kindergarten school year, please have your child's current teacher fill out the specific Teacher Recommendation Form found HERE. After the application for kindergarten is received, a date will be set to meet with our kindergarten teacher for an assessment to confirm that we can serve the child in the manner that would be most beneficial.
At this time, due to Covid-19, we are not allowing shadow days for students applying for 1st-5th grades. Instead, an online meeting will be set with the prospective teacher and the family if applicable.
When the whole application process is completed, the Admissions Committee will meet to review all the documents and assessment. Other important considerations for admissions are gender balance as well as social and educational dynamics of the class.
Marlon Morales will contact you via email regarding our decision for your child.
We do have financial aid available. We work with FACTS Grant & Aid Assessment, an independent, third party company that conducts financial analysis to determine your family’s financial need. After you fill out an application with FACTS, we receive a confidential report outlining your financial situation based on the information obtained in your application and supporting tax documents. If you would like to be considered for financial aid, please start the process here.
