Kindergarten Information Packet: $15

* Robin is waiting to update the Kindergarten Information Packet, meant for September 2023 entry, until there is news on the status of Gifted and Talented in New York City. It is recommended that one holds off on purchasing this packet until at least March 1st. The packet will then be titled Updated Kindergarten Admission Packet when it is available for purchase. Please feel free to reach out to Robin at robin@schoolsearchnyc.com with any questions.
