    IMPORTANT: We’re here to help. For assistance with this process at any time, contact Enrollment Director, Rebecca Briamonte at 520.529.1032.

Step 4: Get-Acquainted Activities with Teacher

  • Once you’ve completed your admissions application to the Grades program, you will be contacted to schedule a meeting for your child with a member of our grades faculty. The meeting and activities take approximately 45 minutes and are generally a relaxed, informal experience for the prospective student.
  • Based on your child’s meeting with the faculty, a recommendation will be made regarding class placement for the three-day visit.
  • Your family will have the opportunity to meet with the class teacher.

Step 5: Applicant Visit to Class

  • Your child is invited to attend his/ her prospective class for a minimum three-day visit. The class visit is designed to ensure that your child’s needs can be met and gives your child a sense of what it is like to attend Tucson Waldorf School.

Step 6: Admissions Decision Notification

  • You will be contacted soon after your child’s three-day visit is scheduled and completed for a meeting to discuss the faculty’s admission recommendation.
