Kindergarten Admissions

The kindergarten application is currently closed. If your child was born in 2018 and lives in New York City, they are eligible to attend kindergarten in fall 2023. You can still participate in kindergarten admissions by adding them to program waitlists now. However, please note that you can no longer apply to G&T programs or add your child to G&T waitlists.
