Garrett Park Nursery School

We are now accepting applications for the 2008 - 2009 school year for all children who will be 2, 3 or 4 by September 1, 2008.

Please Note:  Students who are on our waitlist for the year 2007-08 must renew their application between Sept 1 and Oct. 31 of 2007 to maintain their place on the waitlist for the next year: 2008-2009. Please email for an application renewal form

To learn more about GPNS, please contact the school via telephone at 301.933.5254 or email. To apply, please download the application form attached at the bottom of this page or you may also request to have one mailed to you.

After you have completed and returned an application form and the $40.00 non-refundable application fee, your child's name will be placed on the age-appropriate waiting list in the order in which it was received. The lists are retained and carried over each year for the next higher class without re-application.

To receive priority status, applications for siblings of current students, siblings of alumni, and children of alumni must be submitted by February 1 of the school year prior to enrollment. In February, class lists are compiled and all spaces are filled in the order stated in our admission policy which is enclosed with the application. As vacancies occur, classes are filled from the waiting lists.

If you would like to visit the school, contact us via phone at 301-933-5254 and we will make arrangements for you to meet with a current member who can answer questions, introduce you to the appropriate teacher, and give you a tour of the school. You may stay to observe the class. Please note that we find, for a number of reasons, that your visit will be the most beneficial to you and your child if you do not bring children with you for this visit.
