Registration for the 2026-27 school year: All forms and payments relating to the 2026-27 school year will take place through our childcare software management system, Brightwheel. 

​

Registration for the 2026–27 school year is ongoing, with limited availability. Be advised that our 3-year-old program and waitlist are full. If you are interested in our 20-24 month, 2-year-old, and Pre-K programs, please submit a registration form.

​

Below is the link to the 2026–27 school year registration form and the non-refundable registration fee. After submitting the form and fee, you will receive an email letting you know whether your child has been placed in our program or on the waitlist, along with next steps, including the deposit and any additional paperwork. Please note that if you don’t already have a Brightwheel account, you will be prompted to create one before completing the form and making the fee payment.

• Late January or Early February: Parents are notified if their child has a spot or if they have been waitlisted. For parents offered a spot, the enrollment process begins with the submission of the enrollment form and the May prepayment deposit (one-month tuition, credited towards their account). This step will confirm their child’s enrollment in our preschool. Families have two weeks to make this payment for their child’s spot to be secured.

• After January: Rolling admissions continue for all families as space is available.

Note: Our school year begins the day after Labor Day and ends the Friday before Memorial Day.
