Other Information:
In the early spring you will receive notice of acceptance or being placed on a waiting list.

All applications received by January 31st are considered early enrollment and will be sorted into priority categories.
1. Returning students from the previous year
2. Siblings of previous-year students, in good standing
3. Children of former preschool families, in good standing
4. New to the school

When the number of applicants exceeds the number of openings, a waiting list will be established, prioritized as above. Names are placed on the list in the order received.

If accepted, you will have 2 weeks to sign the admission notice and pay the $500 non refundable deposit which will be applied to your tuition once your child starts.

A 2nd non refundable deposit (equivalent to two tuition payments) is due two months prior to the starting date. Additionally a facility and technology fee totaling approximately $140 will also be due.

All required information and health forms for your child will need to be submitted prior to the first day of attendance.

In order to be eligible, a child must be at least 2 years of age as of September 1st. For the Hummingbirds class, we at least ask the child is familiar with the toilet and training has began at home so we can re-enforce it at school.
