Admissions

Receive the child with deep respect, raise him with love,
​and let him go in freedom. 
-Rudolf Steiner
A child’s educational path is one of the biggest decisions a family makes. At Polaris, our admissions process is meant to help facilitate the decision-making process and ensure that Polaris is the right school for your child and your family. We strive to provide you with all the information you need to make an informed decision and welcome your questions. Our admissions application was created to provide us with enough information to see if we can meet the needs of your child and your expectations. It is just as important for us to know who you are, as it is for you to know who we are.

We encourage families to browse through our website, and come to one of our upcoming Open Houses. Additionally, there are various workshops and lectures throughout the year focusing on our educational approach. If you have the time, there is also a link to a video below where two parents talk about their experiences at Polaris. You may also contact us to arrange for an individual tour, and we are always here to answer any questions you may have.

We are excited to begin the 2023-2024 school year at our newly renovated space at 1805 Gaspe Avenue. It has been wonderful welcoming both current and new families to Polaris this year and establishing a healthy rhythm that will provide a backdrop to the student's learning.  

For the 2023-2024 school year we are excited to offer expanded French music, and handwork programs which will complement the morning lessons. We also look foward to various joint projects which will take us outside, exploring the world of gardening and immersing ourselves in nature.
