School Tours
Tours of our campus are offered throughout the year on an individual basis by appointment and are an essential part of our admission process. During your visit, you and your child will have the opportunity to see the classrooms and shared spaces indoors, as well as our outdoor play yards. We will explain our philosophy and the routines of a typical day, and answer any questions you may have. There is no testing involved, and you and your child will not be separated. Contact Marie Cosgrove to schedule a tour.
How to Apply
Interested families should submit a PIFS admission application online along with a small photo of the prospective student, a copy of his/her birth certificate and the $75 application fee.
