Womit anfangen?
One of our favorite parts of the admissions process is taking you on a school tour—stepping into classrooms and catching a glimpse of our dynamic dual language program. We offer open houses that provide an in-depth view of our school’s philosophy, approach, curriculum, and community. We always save time for Q&A, to make sure that all of your questions are answered.
To apply, please follow these steps:
- Find German School Brooklyn on Ravenna, our online application portal here.
- Attend an open house. You can register directly via Ravenna or sign up here. If you don’t see open houses currently listed, they will be added soon.
- Submit your online application. If German School Brooklyn is the right fit for your family, we encourage you to submit your online application on Ravenna as soon as possible. Completing this preliminary step grants your child an interview, an important part of our admissions process.
Open House/School Tour
Please choose a date that fits your schedule. Email us if you would like to schedule an information session with our Director of Admissions or call us at +1-516-266-9301.

The teacher will receive an email with a secure link to a Teacher Evaluation form, which, once retrieved and filled out, the teacher submits directly to GSB.
- Transcripts: For Grades K and 1 we require transcripts from the last year (if available). We ask applicants to Grades 2 and up to submit transcripts from the past 2 school years.
