Simplifying Private School Admissions
In a process that can quickly become overwhelming, we partner with families to provide concierge-style support and strategic admissions advice to help relieve the stress of changing schools.
Why K-12 Support Matters
Details slip through the cracks
Private school admissions involve many moving parts, and having an experienced guide ensures no little thing gets overlooked.
Unsure where to begin
Families benefit from insight into schools, timelines, and logistics, especially when tackling the process for the first time. We specialize in Kansas City and Nashville area schools, with flexibility to learn new markets as needed.
Parents stretched too thin
Busy families gain peace of mind while a knowledgeable partner helps coordinate the details, paving the way for a smoother transition for their students.
How We Can Help
Whether your family is looking at private school options for the first time, moving to a new area, helping an eighth grader explore their high school choices, or transferring in search of something new, we are here to support. That can look like:
Understanding differences between schools and assessing fit
Refining a list of options based on family priorities
Strategic application guidance and revision of written materials
Coordinating logistics such as shadow days, family tours, interviews, spirit events, placement or entrance testing, and more
Academic transition guidance to bridge the gap between schools
Our focus on building relationships means we partner with your family to help find the best fit.
