Preschool Admissions Workshops
Click to view the Preschool Workshop Schedule. For 2013 admission, call 212-737-7385 to register.
A Parents League advisor leads a 90-minute workshop that guides you through the admissions process: when to start, how old your child should be, how to develop a list of preschools to look at, the application process, what to look for, and what to expect. You are given a Workshop book with a list of over 200 preschools organized by neighborhood. The emphasis is on giving you the information you need.
If you are applying to preschools for September 2013, attend a one of these workshops. They are offered several times a week and they are a great place to begin the admissions process. Reservations are required, and you must be a member.
Please Note: No Preschool Workshops will be held during the last three weeks of August. Our workshops are small (maximum: 15 participants), very popular and they fill up quickly.
Call 212-737-7385 to register.
