How Enrollment Works
- 01
Take a tour
Tours run during the school day so you see the classroom with children in it. You will talk with the teacher who would have your child, and you are welcome to bring your child along.
- 02
Get on the list
There is often a waitlist. Add your child as soon as you know you are interested, because spots open frequently.
- 03
Register
The $100 family registration fee is due at enrollment, along with immunization records, a completed health assessment, and enrollment paperwork.
- 04
Start
Tuition is billed weekly. Your entry keypad code is issued on the first day, and Procare is set up before your child walks in.
