Private School Application Process

Norwell Middle School counselors and staff are happy and willing to assist families who wish to submit applications to private school.  In order to best assist families and manage the great volume of information that must be shared as part of this process, Norwell Middle School has instituted a standardized process for requesting school records and recommendations.  We encourage families to communicate their intention to complete private school applications as early as possible.  We look forward to working with families through this process.

The process is as follows:

  1. Families should notify NMS counselors, and any teacher who will be asked to complete recommendations, of intent to submit private school applications, in writing, as soon as possible.

  2. Families should complete and submit the signed Records Release Form to your school counselor at least three school weeks prior to the first deadline*.
     

Rush: students with last names A-J

  1. Families should contact teachers directly to complete forms/recommendations at least three school weeks prior to the first deadline.

  2. Students should complete and submit the Private School Student Questionnaire (click HERE for access to the questionnaire) to their school counselor and all teachers completing recommendations at least three school weeks prior to the first deadline.   

  3. If you have questions about a recommendation and/or its status, please contact the teacher directly.
