Airie Forest School admits students of any race, color, gender, sexual orientation, neurological difference, religion, nationality, or ethnic origin. All students may access the privileges, offerings, and activities as they are developmentally capable.

Families will be asked to pay a $20.00 fee to join our waiting pool email list.
