Quarry Lane School offers two admissions cycles for families that have children entering grade JK-12:
- Early Admission: If Quarry Lane is your family’s first choice, the Early Admission Cycle is designed for you. Families who apply in this cycle let us know that QLS is where they see their child, and if offered admission, they will not pursue applications elsewhere.
- If you have a campus preference, Early Admission is the best way to secure consideration for that choice. While we do our best to honor requests, please note that campus placement cannot be guaranteed.
- We also encourage all current QLS families with siblings to apply in the Early Admission Cycle.
- Regular Admission: If Quarry Lane is one of several school options or you need additional time. You are welcome to apply during any cycle, the only difference in the applications are the due dates for submission of primary and supplemental elements of the application.
