SCHOOL TOURS
We look forward to welcoming you to an informational session and school tour.
In person tours will be held from 9:15 a.m.-10:15 a.m. Tours will be posted after September 23rd. These tours are for prospective parents only. To attend an in-person tour you must be fully vaccinated. The Excelsior Pass will be required for proof of vaccination if you were vaccinated in New York State. For anyone vaccinated out of state, please contact the admissions office.
Please call our Admissions Office at (212)-734-0922 to reserve your place. All application materials must be submitted to the school before a tour is scheduled. We request both parents, if applicable, attend the tour.
Since we are not able to meet your child in person this admissions season, we invite you to share a short (no longer than 3 minutes), current video clip of your child. Some suggestions are your child playing on their own or engaging with another child or adult, outdoor time, favorite activities, drawing or painting. If possible, we would like to capture some language. Please include your child’s name in the body of the email. This can be submitted admissions@yorkavenupreschool.org or to our Google account yorkavenuepreschoolnyc@gmail.com
