[quote=Anonymous]First, it’s Burgundy Farm (not plural). No biggie but it doesn’t hurt to get the name right. It’s not that common for kids to come in at 7th grade, but they’ll accept families who are a good fit if there are openings. I’d say there are usually a small number of new students in 7th (my kid was one of them a few years ago). We’re still there with a younger child. Burgundy definitely cares about fit so you’ll want to show you understand the progressive education model and articulate why it’s a good match for your student. I think coming in for 7th, they’d want to know why you’re looking to move your student from their current school. The school doesn’t place a lot of weight on testing but it can help provide a full picture and profile of your kid. Finally, Burgundy is pretty down to earth overall so no need to try to be fancy and flashy.[/quote]
