Admissions

Our school community is blooming. 


Our lottery took place on March 20, 2026. A few spaces remain for children ready to learn through exploration and discovery.​ We look forward to getting to know you and your family!

​If you’ve been feeling the pull, this is a beautiful time to join. Our classrooms are rooted in belonging, where children learn through exploration, connection, and joyful discovery. We nurture independence, curiosity, and confidence, helping each child grow at their own pace in a caring, teacher-led environment.​ We know choosing a school is a big step. If NNWM feels like the right fit for your family, we invite you to take that next step and apply.

 

Even after the lottery, your child can still become part of our thriving garden by joining our waitlist.

Nevada Ready! Pre-K4 Enrollment

4 Years Old on August 1, 2026

​

For the coming year, the Pre-K program will be 100% funded through Nevada Ready! Pre-K grants. Your child may qualify if any of the following apply:

  • Income: Household income at or under 200% of the Federal Poverty Level (FPL): Official 2026 Federal Poverty Guidelines

  • Special Circumstances: Foster care or experiencing homelessness

  • Language: Primary home language is not English

  • Disability: Individualized Education Plan (IEP)

 

The NNWM Pre-K program is separate from the charter school and has its own enrollment process. Pre-K enrollment is not part of the charter school lottery. In accordance with Nevada law, children who receive grant-funded Pre-K services are offered priority enrollment into Kindergarten at NNWM’s charter school.

​

Charter School Enrollment
(Kindergarten–3rd Grade)

After any priority enrollment, available seats in the charter school are filled through a fair, random, weighted lottery designed to support equitable access.

The child who has felt a strong love for his surroundings and for all living creatures, who has discovered joy and enthusiasm in work, gives us reason to hope that humanity can develop in a new direction.
