Application Process for the 2026-2027 School Year Beginning soon!
Children must be between 2.6 to 5 years old to attend Noe Valley Nursery School. Children must be potty trained upon enrollment (accidents may happen, of course, but children cannot wear diapers; they learn quickly when among peers). Please note that we have a rolling admissions process and we process applications in the order of receipt.
The official enrollment process for the 2026-2027 school year will begin with our parent information nights on Thursday, January 15th and Thursday, February 12th at 7:30 PM. These events are adults only and held at our school. Meet current parents and our director and learn more about our school. Please RSVP to membership@noevalleynurseryschool.com if you’d like to attend or with any questions.
The application process includes:
1) Attending a Parent Information Night, held Thursday, January 15th and Thursday, February 12th at 7:30PM. These events are adults only and held at our school.
2) Participating in a tour of the school, during which you'd meet a current member family and our director when school is in session. Tours are about 45 minutes long, and your child is welcome and encouraged to attend.
3) Submitting a digital application along with a $40 non refundable fee.
Noe Valley Nursery School welcomes all children and their families regardless of their race, religion, sexual orientation, gender identity, national, or ethnic origin. We do not discriminate in our programs, admission policies, scholarships, or other activities.
