ADMISSIONS - APPLYING TO VISTAMAR SCHOOL

Welcome!

Admissions at Vistamar is a mutual exploration by families and the school. The several parts of the application process are designed to give us as complete a picture as possible of each prospective student. At the same time, our web site, publications, open house events, and neighborhood gatherings aim at providing families with all the information they need to make an informed decision about the appropriateness of Vistamar for their student. Please feel welcome to request more information or to call the school and speak with a member of our staff.
