Admission Policy

The Orchard School provides an education founded on an appreciation of childhood and family. It fosters an environment that values the physical, emotional, social and intellectual growth of children.

This requires the creation of a school community where the human differences present in our school and in our society are acknowledged, respected, esteemed and viewed as essential, and where ideas and behaviors that oppress others are challenged and addressed through an educational process.

These differences include but are not limited to: race, gender, ethnic, cultural, social, sexual orientation, economic and religious, as well as, the variety of physical, intellectual, and spiritual qualities that make unique individuals of us all.
