Montclare Children's School

Montclare is committed to supporting and guiding our families through the Exmissions?process. We have developed relationships with the ongoing independent schools in New York City and are well-versed in the various G&T and other public school options as well. ?Montclare's excellent exmissions results are a testament to that fact. Mimi Dupuis, our Director of Exmissions, brings her in-depth knowledge of both the?independent and public school programs to inform and guide parents along every step of the way. Montclare's multi-tiered approach to Exmissions includes various Parent Education opportunities such as; seminars, interactive workshops, and open-ended Q&A coffees help parents learn more about what to expect and how to proceed. Some highlights are: Life After Montclare: the Exmissions Process: Montclare offers a yearly seminar in which we cover every aspect of applying out to public, G&T, and private Kindergarten programs Public Schools: G&T Testing and the Kindergarten Application: A seminar which focuses on public school applications, Hunter College Elementary School, and trends in G&T testing PA Exmissions Fair: Each spring our Parents Association invites the parents of Montclare graduates to represent the ongoing schools they chose for their children. ?This is a wonderful opportunity for our parents to learn more about the different ongoing school options directly from parents of children in those schools Private Consultation: In the spring before they begin applying to Kindergarten programs, families have the?opportunity to schedule a one-on-one consultation with our Director and Director of Exmissions?to further discuss the Exmissions process and create a comprehensive approach tailored to their child and family.
