Admissions Policies

  • We will prioritize balancing age and gender when building our class rosters. Currently enrolled children, siblings and alumni families will be given preference.
  • Any families who do not receive an offer of enrollment after the deadlines posted above may remain on our waitlist. We cannot guarantee admission and will make every effort to enroll families from our waitlist whenever a spot becomes available.
  • Once accepted, families must submit up-to-date immunization records and other forms as required by ToTH to participate, for the safety of all children involved, by July 1, 2026.
  • ToTH does not discriminate in its admissions policies or in the administration of its educational policies on the basis of race, gender, national or ethnic origin, disability, religion, or sexual orientation.
