How EPS Gets to Know You
As you get to know EPS and share information about your family through the admission application, we also want to get to know you on a more personal level through these unique experiences:

Parent/Guardian Interviews help us learn about applicants through the parent/guardian lens. This thirty-minute session will also allow parents and guardians time for asking family-specific questions.
If you have more than one student applying to Eastside Prep, please register for an opening and email the date and time to the Admissions Office at admissions@eastsideprep.org, and we will schedule a more extended interview.
Student Online Assessment: Video and Written Responses are a way to get to know each student as an individual – their personalities, interests, and the unique ways they think. Through recorded video interview responses, students can express themselves in their own words, providing authentic insights for our admissions committee into their identities and personalities. Students will also respond to questions in writing. By completing this online assessment, members of our admissions committee get to hear from your student directly.
We will email links out on a weekly basis as new applicants create accounts.

Ravenna Forms are opportunities to share your thoughts and anything you want us to know about your family.
- The Parent/Guardian Statement allows us to understand better, in your own words, who your student is, who you are as a family, and what you’re looking for in a school.
- Student Interests & Activities give us further insight into who your student is and what they like to do. We can imagine how your students might connect with and participate in our school community through this information.
- The Student Essay provides insights into how students think about a topic, as well as their writing style, in one to two paragraphs (250 words).
- Student Short Answers capture a student’s personality through brief, in-the-moment responses.
- School Records help us see how your student has grown and progressed over their last three years of schooling, including areas of strength and areas where they can continue to grow. This helps us to understand where a student is academically and whether they’re prepared to enter their application grade at EPS.
- Teacher Evaluations give us an in-the-classroom view of how a student interacts with peers and teachers. We hear teachers’ firsthand experiences with the students. This allows us to visualize how your student will engage with the EPS community.
