Registration is open year-round for incredible young people who want to
- Direct their lives & learning
- Be part of running their school
- Enjoy their childhood & adolescence

We can usually accept new students all throughout the school year. We are currently enrolling students ages 5 - 12 (13 and 14 in some cases). Sudbury is a growth journey that is best started as soon as possible.

​If you're excited about a Sudbury education, please call to see if we have space for your student as we work to keep a good age/gender balance in the student body.
