Our Application Process

Choosing the right school for your child is an important decision. We encourage you to explore our website to learn more about Goatstown ETNS. We’d be happy to answer any questions you may have via email, phone call, or, if time permits and it is safe to do so, a visit to our school. A tour will allow you to experience our school’s atmosphere first-hand
and get a sense of what it would be like for your child here.
