Admissions

We are delighted you are considering Green’s Farms Nursery School!  We are happy to assist you in the important journey you have embarked on to find the right school for your child and family!

2022-23 and 2023-24 classes are currently full, with the exception of the 2023-24 Fives/Kindergarten.  To inquire, tour, or apply to the Fives/Kindergarten Class, please email us at admissions@gfns.org.

To apply for 2024-25, click HERE, beginning on Monday, October 16, 2023.


Age Cutoff:

While Connecticut recently changed its Kindergarten age cutoff to September 1, GFNS continues to admit children to each age level based on a December 31 cutoff.  (For example, children must be 2 years old by December 31 of the year they enter the Twos program.)

GFNS offers an outstanding Fives program for children with a birthday between September 1 and September 31 that children can attend after completing the Fours program, before starting Kindergarten.
