Admissions

Enrolling your child at Alpine Valley School is a simple two-step process:

1. Visit. Come and see Alpine Valley School for yourself by booking a private tour of our campus for your family.

2. Enrollment. Schedule an Admissions Interview for your family. During this meeting, staff members will answer all of your questions and work with your family to ensure that our school is a good fit before finalizing admissions.

If you’ve come for a tour in the last six months and want to take the next step in enrollment, please call us at 303-271-0525 or send us an email at info@alpinevalleyschool.com
