How to Apply

STEP ONE: Inquire

The first step in any application is the completion of our inquiry form, which creates a Ravenna account with which you can complete the application.

 

STEP TWO: Register for a required campus tour and Open House via Ravenna

We love showing off our school. A campus tour is a required step in the application process. We host group tours starting in October and running through January. Registration is available through Ravenna.

Our Open House event presents a unique opportunity to experience MP&MS from the students' perspective. You start in a preschool class and spend the morning working your way up through our middle school, seeing firsthand how our joyful, learner-centered environment evolves and adapts to the developmental stages of our students. There is no substitute for experiencing the expertise, wisdom, and passion of our teachers firsthand. Registration for an Open House is available through Ravenna.

If your schedule does not allow you to attend a group tour or Open House, please contact admissions@mpms.org to schedule a private tour of campus.

 

STEP THREE: Apply 

The full application is available through Ravenna.

In addition to biographical information, the application asks for responses to a series of prompts. Because we cannot meet every preschool applicant, these written responses play a critically important role in how our admissions committee evaluates applicants. No child is without flaw; we encourage you to be open about your child's strengths and areas where we can partner with you on their growth.

Note: Children must be 24 months by September 1 to enter our two-year-old program; three years of age by September 1 to enter our three-year-old program; and four years of age by September 1 to enter our four-year-old program. 

If you have any questions or would like to speak with someone in the admissions office, please feel free to reach out to us at admissions@mpms.org.

STEP FOUR: Parent/Guardian Interview

Registration for interviews is available through Ravenna.

Parent interviews are informal conversations for applicant families conducted either in person or over Zoom. The goal of these meetings is to answer any remaining questions and further MP&MS and families' familiarity with one another.

Questions in the interview focus on the student and how MP&MS can best serve them.

 

STEP FOUR: Visit Day

Registration for student visits is available through Ravenna.

Students applying to kindergarten through eighth grade are required to visit campus during a school day to experience MP&MS, connect with students and teachers, and understand how MP&MS can serve them.

Kindergarten students visit in small groups and enjoy play time on the playground, a visit to the kindergarten classroom, and a quick exercise with our learning specialists. Parents are free to remain on campus for this visit, though the exercise with learning specialists is students only.

Applicants to first through eighth grade spend a full school day on campus.
