High School Transition
The High School Transition Process
Our Upper School Head and Assistant Upper School Head work closely with students in Grades 7 and 8 and their families to help them choose the most appropriate High School options and, for those students who are applying to a new High School, to help them navigate the steps of applying to New York City’s independent and public schools.
