Wait List & Priority Enrollment Details:
We give priority into the Nursery School to siblings and those children currently enrolled in our Parent & Me or Transition classes. We base those calls on the chronological order of the dates on their Nursery School application. To fill the remaining spots, we make calls primarily in chronological order of the dates on those applications from people not currently in any of our classes. Other factors are also taken into consideration, including the ages of the children and an attempt to balance the classes between boys and girls. This process begins early each calendar year.
It is usually towards the end of January that we send out a “Continued Interest” letter to everyone who has submitted an application for the Nursery School for that school year. We will consider “active” only those continued interest forms that are returned.
In early spring, we will begin to fill the first year nursery school spots with our siblings and current Parent & Me/Transition children.
When those children have been placed, we will begin to make calls to those people who have returned the “Continued Interest” letter. This phase can take us through April and sometimes May.
