Applying to Kindergarten

All applications, including form submissions, may be completed online using Ravenna - you may start the form and return to it at any time.  Your application will not be received by our admission team until you press the "Submit" button. 

Completing your application early will give you optimum flexibility in scheduling your Parent/Guardian Meeting before the deadline rush. Your application is due before your Parent/Guardian Meeting. Please submit the completed application along with the application fee ($100*) and a recent family photo as soon as you are ready, and no later than the due date listed on Ravenna. 

*To request an application fee waiver, please email the Admission Office: admission@sfday.org.  Thank you.

Once you begin your application, we strongly encourage you to sign up for your virtual Parent/Guardian Meeting with the director of admission. Your application is due before your scheduled Parent/Guardian Meeting. If you are applying for more than one child, a separate application must be completed for each child. Please schedule two meetings for twin students.

All parents/guardians of prospective kindergarten students meet with the director of admission. These meetings last 20 minutes and provide us with the opportunity to interact personally with each prospective family. Meetings will be conducted from October through mid-February.

Getting to know each of our wonderful kindergarten applicants is an invaluable part of this process, and we have designed meaningful ways to know each applicant student. We will be requesting materials to help us understand and know more about your child. We look forward to learning more about your child!
