School Pictures, Community Coffee, Sibling Admissions: there's a whole lot going on!

School picture days are Tuesday, October 11, 2022 for all individual student photos, and Wednesday, October 12, 2022 for photos of our students with their siblings. Soundview uses Lincoln and Lucy Photography.

Dear Soundview Family, 

This morning at drop-off, a first- grade student reminded me that October starts tomorrow, and it’s his favorite month. We agree! There is a lot to look forward to at Soundview in October.

Soundview applications for siblings of current students are available now and due December 2, 2022 for the 2023-2024 school year. Using the sibling admissions process moves your child to the front of the admissions line. You can begin your application now on Ravenna, our online admissions software. Start your application HERE

Applications are also now being accepted for all other interested families. The deadline for applications for the 2023-2024 school year is February 3, 2023. If you know of a family that would benefit from an ethical, rigorous, and compassionate school experience, please refer them to Soundview School. 

Get all of your questions about admissions answered by contacting Victoria Nunes, Soundview’s new Director of Enrollment Management HERE
