Admission Workshops

Robin works with families entering the admission processes for grades Nursery-12th grade. She conducts workshops on applying to Elementary, Middle and High Schools.

Every spring, I conduct two workshops. My Life After Nursery Series includes:

  • The Private School Admission Process
  • The Manhattan and Citywide Public School Admission Process.

These workshops are open to the public. When registration is open, please follow the links below to enroll.
