Plan Your Visit: Experience Imago
Thank you for your interest in The Imago School! It is important that you experience The Imago School for yourself; observe students and teachers in action on a typical school day, speak with the Head of School and tour our facility.
Learn more about our Admissions Process and schedule a visit
We look forward to meeting you and exploring with you how we might partner with you in raising children of character!
Should you decide that you would like your child(ren) to be considered for admission, the following steps are required:
1. Schedule a Visit and Tour of The Imago School
Our headmistress, Mrs. Diana McKee, will be delighted to take you on a tour of the school. This visit would allow you to learn more about our philosophy of education, have a glimpse into life at Imago, and to see our teachers and students at work in the classrooms. It also gives you the opportunity to ask questions in person. Children are welcome for this visit.
Our regular tours are scheduled for Mondays and Thursdays starting at 9:00 AM and they typically take an hour. We hold a few Open Houses in the spring, with times usually during the week while class is in session, in the evening, and on the weekend. The dates will be posted here.
Please inquire about the school and request a visit using this link that is hosted by FACTS Management.
2. Fill Out the Admission Application Form
Once the initial school visit and tour is complete, and if you are ready to move forward with enrolling your child, the next step is to fill out our Admission Application Form. You will need to reach out to our Director of Admissions, Mrs. Marta Burbeck at m.burbeck@imagoschool.org, who will provide you with the necessary online link. We are using FACTS Management to register and process applications as well. We request a non-refundable application fee of $125 for each applying student to cover the cost of evaluation. This fee will be paid online before submitting your application. Please note that you can start to fill out and save the Application Form at any stage, you do not need to finish it in one session.
3. Entrance Test
For all students who are applying to the Imago School an entrance test will be scheduled. Students in the lowest grades are primarily evaluated for developmental maturity. Applicants in Grade 2 and up will be tested in language arts and math. The test will take place as soon as possible, if you wish to enroll your child in the current school year. Otherwise testing will be scheduled starting in April for students who wish to enroll in the next school year.
4. Parent Interview
Mrs. McKee will meet with both parents for an interview which will conclude the admission process to determine the compatibility of our educational aims and methods with the intentions and desires of the individual home.
We kindly request that parents read our Statement of Faith and the Handbook before the parent interview as parts of these important documents will be discussed during that conversation.
The Imago School accepts applications year-round, and new students are welcome throughout the school year provided that the grade of the prospective student has room for additions. All admission decisions are determined by the Imago Board of Directors.
Admission to the Imago School is open to any child, regardless of race, color, sex, national or ethnic origin, or church affiliation.
