Admission Criteria

OVERVIEW

Thank you for your enthusiasm in applying for a place at CMRNPS for your child. At CMRNPS, we appreciate every parent for their interest in admission to our small, close-knit community. While we try to accommodate as many requests as possible, it is often difficult to offer admission to all those who apply. Deciding on the right school for your child is a big decision and we encourage parents to understand more about the curriculum, culture, extracurricular opportunities before applying.

By understanding our school philosophy, parents make an informed decision about the right fit for their child. At CMRNPS, the parent mindset, support, and involvement play an important role in how we can help your child derive the best education we have to offer.
