Welcome from Speyer Admissions!

We are excited for the 2024-2025 Admissions season! At Speyer, our faculty is committed to the needs of gifted learners who are insatiably curious and who thrive in a collaborative community of like-minded peers. Our students are encouraged to delve deeper and pause to reflect about what matters most — compassion, integrity, optimism, and determination. Through an interdisciplinary curriculum that responds to their students’ inquiry, Speyer’s faculty cultivate students’ social and emotional development alongside their intellect and physical well-being.

Our students are empowered to express their creativity and make personal connections both in and outside the classroom. Most importantly, we encourage children to be children with a spirit of joy and wonder. 

  • To begin your application, please create an account through Ravenna, and select “Explore” Speyer for more information.

  • We are hosting Open Houses, tours, and other opportunities for you to visit Speyer throughout this fall. They are listed on Ravenna and here on our website; registration for them can be found on Ravenna.
