Apply & Enroll
The Innovative School of Temple Beth Sholom is a Reggio inspired Jewish community dedicated to joyful learning and Tikkun Olam, the Jewish value of making the world a better place. Our holistic approach to admissions considers each family’s mission-alignment with our school philosophy, embodiment of our KEHILLA values, and commitment to our Temple Beth Sholom community. Elementary school applicants are additionally assessed on their academic profile, character and citizenship.
With questions, please email admissions@innovativeschool.org.
Enrollment for Current Families
We are excited to announce that we are transitioning to a continuous enrollment system. This means that after you sign your re-enrollment contract for the 2026-2027 school year, your child’s enrollment will automatically renew each year. For families looking to make a change in their child’s education, there will be a six-week “opt-out” period each year, during which you may withdraw your child for the following year if needed.
Our re-enrollment period for the 2026-2027 school year will begin on Thursday, December 4 and close on Tuesday, December 16.
Sibling Policy: If you are planning to enroll a sibling who will be new to the Innovative School for 2026-2027, you must submit an application for the new sibling by the December 18 deadline. While your child will receive priority consideration, you will receive an admissions decision on February 5. The deadline for accepted families to enroll for 2026-2027 will be February 10.
