[quote=Anonymous]The OP is not asking an incorrect question at all. There is a new pre-school, child development school called St. Alban's which is not affiliated with the 4-12 one. It is located in Tenleytown at the old St. Ann's Academy. It is independent of St. Alban's and St. Ann's.[/quote]

It's a child care center that goes up to age 5 so OPs son is presumably not looking at this since he's already 5.

Wow... you seem bitter. Was your son not admitted?

Forget it if you aren't a legacy or minority.

It's not new, just the location. I believe its affiliated with St. Albans church but is now housed in the former St. Ann's school.

It's probably too late, but if you goal is St Albans, and you want to enter in 4th grade, your best bet is to attend K at Beauvoir.


Why is it too late?


Because applications for Beauvoir were due earlier this month.

Search for "Getting in to St. Albans." Probably one of the most viewed threads of all time.

St Albans doesn't start until 4th grade so it's not a choice for you now. It is very difficult to get into even in entry/expansion years.
