Hi Hallie, I'm so glad to hear that Hunter and Natalie enjoyed their visit to Field! It was a pleasure meeting them, and you as well - thanks also for your time. I know we had to wrap up our visit fairly urgently; please don't hesitate to reach out with any additional questions at any time. To move forward with an application, we'll need the following for both Natalie and Hunter (separately): * Field School Application * Two (2) Teacher Recommendations, from current academic teachers * Grade Reports (current year and 2015-2016 school year) * Student Essay * Testing: either an SSAT, ISEE, WISC IV or V, or any neuropsychological or psychoeducational evaluations (dated within approximately 2 years). The online application, student essay assignment, transcript release forms, and link to our online teacher recommendation are all HERE <https://www.fieldschool.org/apply> on our website, on the right hand side (links and downloads). Please let me know how we can be helpful in any way. You can send materials to me directly, or to my colleague, Caroline Johnson ( carolinej@fieldschool.org). I look forward to hearing from you soon! All the best, Maureen *Maureen Miesmer* *Director of Admissions, Enrollment, and Financial Aid* *The Field School* *202-295-5840* On Wed, May 17, 2017 at 8:03 PM, Hallie Biden <halliebiden@gmail.com> wrote: > Hi Maureen, > > I wanted to thank you for a lovely and informative visit to your school. > Natalie and Hunter were able to see first hand and appreciate the greatness > of Field.
