Welcome! We're so glad you're here.
The Clariden School is a community of committed families and curious, thoughtful, and independent thinkers. We aim to enroll students who have a strong desire to learn, exhibit good moral character, display exemplary behavior and judgment, and demonstrate evidence of potential success in Clariden's project-based academic program.
Clariden’s admission process is intentionally thorough, and we take great care to evaluate each applicant as a student, classmate, citizen, and future contributor to our global community. Families are asked to submit previous school records, standardized assessments, and teacher recommendations. Once engaged in the process, prospective students are invited to spend a day at Clariden, and parent and student interviews are scheduled to provide the most comprehensive picture of the applicant. Our goal is to ensure every admission is the best fit for the student, the family, and the Clariden community.
We encourage you to visit Clariden to tour our beautiful 23-acre campus and meet our wonderful faculty and talented students. There is no better way to understand the culture of a school than to spend time with the people who bring it to life every day. We can't wait to meet you!
