Help us get to know your student by responding to the questions on the Parent Statement. To receive priority consideration and be guaranteed an interview, the Parent Statement must be submitted by January 15, 2022.

For applicants to Junior Kindergarten and Senior Kindergarten, register for a family interview through Ravenna after submitting your Parent Statement responses.

For applicants to Grades 1 through 5, interviews are by invitation and based on projected space availability for the upcoming school year. Families will be contacted for interviews in January 2022.

Junior Kindergarten, Senior Kindergarten and Grade 1
All applicants are required to submit a birth certificate, all available report cards, and current teacher and administrator recommendation forms. The applicant family provides the name and email addresses for the teacher and administrator in Ravenna, and the recommendation forms are emailed directly to them and collected online.

If your student was not previously enrolled in school or daycare, please speak with the Admissions Office about waiving the requirement in the Ravenna portal.

Grade 2, Grade 3 and Grade 4
All applicants are required to submit a birth certificate, all available report cards, any standardized testing results, along with a current teacher recommendation form and administrator recommendation form.

Grade 5
All applicants are required to submit a birth certificate, all available report cards, any standardized testing results, along with current administrator and current teacher (English and mathematics) recommendation forms. If both subjects are taught by one person, that teacher must complete both recommendation forms. The applicant family provides the name and email addresses for the teacher(s) and administrator in Ravenna, and the recommendation forms are emailed directly to them and collected online.

Optional Letters of Recommendation (all grades)
Parker will accept additional recommendations from any individual (e.g., coach, arts instructor, etc.) who has worked with your child and can attest to their interests, abilities, and achievements.

Additional recommendations should be emailed to the Admissions Director for the division to which your child is applying. Unlike the required recommendations found in Ravenna, there is no specific form for the optional recommendations. We simply request that the letter is as detailed as possible.

Junior Kindergarten, Senior Kindergarten and Grade 1
Applicants will meet with members of Parker's faculty to complete a developmental assessment to assess your student's language, cognitive and motor skills. No preparation is required. Register in Ravenna.

Grade 2, Grade 3, Grade 4 and Grade 5
Applicants must complete the Independent School Entrance Examination (ISEE). Students may take the assessment anywhere it is offered, not just Parker. Advance registration is required. During registration, please enter Parker's school code (052843), and the scores will be shared with us electronically when available.

Scores must be received directly from ISEE by February 1, 2022.

Fee waivers are available upon request. Please contact Erik Anderson.

The deadline for prospective students to complete the financial assistance application is February 1, 2022.
