Admission FAQs

When is your application deadline?

What is early decision?

If Bosque School is your top choice, we encourage you to apply early decision, which means both your admission application and tuition assistance application are due earlier than regular decision applications. The benefit of doing so is that not only will your child receive a much earlier admission decision, but your financial aid needs will be considered prior to regular decision applicants. *Please note that applying early to Bosque School indicates that you are not applying early decision elsewhere.

What classes do students take?

Our curriculum guide can be found here.

In middle school, all students are required to take English, math, social studies, science, Spanish, visual arts, and a performing arts class, PE, and WELLBEING.
In upper school, students are required to take Humanities, math, science, Spanish, two credits of visual and/or performing arts, PE, WELLBEING, and can choose from a wide variety of electives.

What is your schedule like?

Bosque School runs on an 8-day A through H block rotation schedule in which students attend four classes daily. It intentionally rotates so that students do not have the same class at the same time each day. For example, if math is A block on your student’s schedule, they will have math first block on day one and fourth block on day 3. You can find the block rotation schedule here.

Time is built in at the end of each school day for students to meet with teachers and advisors, work on homework, or participate in activities.

Do you have a competitive sports program?

What does “whole-child education” mean?

At Bosque School, we seek to comprehensively support our students as whole people. We recognize that academic excellence manifests when individuals feel safe, seen, heard, and valued. All students have the WELLBEING (wellness, education, leadership, life skills, belonging, engagement, inquiry, neuroscience and growth) curriculum built into their schedule from 6th through 12th grade, and our dedicated Bosque School WELLBEING faculty all have specific expertise in the various elements of the curriculum. With their support, students develop their skills and deepen their understanding of crucial topics beyond core academics, learning to apply twenty-first-century skills with nuance and empathy.
