Rolling Admissions

For the 2024-2025 School Year:

Green Ivy International Schools operates on a rolling admissions basis for our Early Childhood Programs (Nursery Ones to Junior Kindergarten/Fours).

Once the admissions application and supplementary materials have been received and all admissions steps completed, families can expect a decision notification promptly. Families who complete all admissions steps by the second Thursday of each month, can anticipate learning of their admissions decision by the third Thursday of each month.

When accepted, a family is offered an enrollment agreement and has two weeks to review, ask questions, and sign the document to enroll their child.

Our Kindergarten and higher grades will follow the ISAAGNY Notification and Reply dates for Pine Street School elementary and middle school admissions decisions.

Applying to Both Sister Schools

Pine Street School has a sister school – Battery Park Montessori – just a short walk from us, immersed in nature with a view of the Hudson River in Battery Park City. While each school offers unique programming, they are joined pedagogically by our belief that students learn best when empowered to be independent and active participants in their own learning. Visit the website for our sister school to better understand the options you have and view a comparison of our two programs.

We invite you to consider both of our schools if your child is entering an early childhood program. You can find more information about applying to our sister school, Battery Park Montessori, here. The application requirements are unique to each school, so please take time to review those requirements carefully.

You must apply to each school separately. Once requirements are completed for a school, you will receive an admissions decision for that school. If your child is admitted, you will have two weeks (14 calendar days) to accept the invitation to enroll in that school. If we do not receive your acceptance in that timeframe, we will offer that spot to another family. If you receive admission to one of our schools but wish to wait for the decision from the sister school, you may do so, but please bear in mind the two-week decision timeframe remains the same. If you do have a preference for one sister school over the other, kindly let us know before both applications are considered.

Vaccination Policy

All students attending Green Ivy International Schools are required to have up-to-date immunizations as outlined by the New York State Department of Health/ Department of Education. We require the NY CH 205 form with vaccination details upon enrollment. If students are not compliant with the New York State immunization requirements, they will be excluded from school until they receive the vaccines. For the Covid-19 vaccination and boosters, at this time, we do not require children under 5 years old to be fully vaccinated against Covid-19. This policy can change should another spike or outbreak occur. All students older than five must be fully vaccinated against Covid-19. Once an enrolled student turns five years of age and/or upon entering Kindergarten, up to date Covid-19 vaccinations are required.
