Become involved!
Our school works so well because of the involvement of parents. We have many areas where parents contribute and help run our school, from working in the library, organizing events, staffing hallway safety as well as helping with administrative, marketing and IT tasks.
For a complete list of areas where we need help to how it is organized, please contact our parent helper at parentjobs@germansaturdayschoolboston.org
Preference for Returning Students
We guarantee classroom space for returning students who register by April 23, 2013. We do our best to accommodate all returning families, but cannot guarantee spaces for siblings (in the majority of cases this is not a problem). Please note that siblings have priority over students in new families until April 23. Registration will be closed between April 24 and April 30. On May 1, 2013 we will open up registration to new families.
Preschool-Applicants
All children entering our preschool class must be 4 years old by August 31, 2013 and toilet trained. It is recommended that they have previous preschool, playgroup or daycare experience. Preschool applicants must provide the school with a copy of the child’s birth certificate. This can e-mailed to: registrar@germansaturdayschoolboston.org.
IEP
If your child is on an IEP in his or her regular school, please note this on your enrollment form and provide the principal with a copy of the IEP documentation before the beginning of the school year.
