Frequently Asked Admission Questions During COVID-19
Yes, our office is open! You can either complete an inquiry form, email the Admission Office, or call 508-404-9781 to connect about changes that have been made to our admission process and discuss whether Sage could be the right fit for your child.
We are able to do individual family tours on the weekends while adhering to the current safety guidelines. Email the Admission Office to schedule a tour. Scroll to the bottom of the page to check our Lower School virtual tour and peek inside some of our Sage classrooms.
Yes, we are still accepting applications for 2020-2021 as we have a few openings in select classes. Once the online application is complete, we will schedule time for the applicant to visit virtual classes at their current grade level. Over the summer, applicants will visit in our virtual camp sessions. They will also meet virtually with a teacher (or two for Grades 5-8) to participate in some assessments.
The teacher recommendation form (below) as well as the latest report card or transcript are still required.
• Teacher recommendation form for Beginners and Pre-K applicants (if currently in a program)
• Teacher recommendation form for Kindergarten and Grade 1 applicants
• Teacher recommendation form for Grades 2-5 applicants
• Math Teacher recommendation form for Grades 6-8 applicants
• English Teacher recommendation form for Grades 6-8 applicants
Absolutely – we will be contacting you to continue the process, at wherever that point in the process that may be. Applicants are participating in virtual classes and meeting virtually with teachers to participate in assessments. We ask that you still request teacher recommendations from your child’s current teacher, as most students are in contact with them. If their school’s office is closed, you can share their most recent report card with us directly.

We are currently offering in person five days a week as well as remote learning for the 2020-2021 school year. The virtual program is a mix of synchronous and asynchronous learning. Students at all levels meet daily with their teachers.
Last spring, parents, students, and teachers were surveyed after the first three weeks of remote learning and slight changes were made to the schedule based on community feedback. Click to learn about what our virtual education plans last year looked like.
Yes, we continue to hold virtual admission events. Reach out to the Admission Office for more information if you are interested in connecting with the Head of School, members of the Academic Leadership Team, or faculty and staff who work in specific areas of the school.
