Admission Considerations

Entrance to all our programs is on a first-come, first-serve basis, applications being accepted in the order received. If a program is full when your application is received, you will be notified and put on a wait-list. No deposit money is required for wait-listed applicants.

While the programs above list age guidelines, placement of a child into the appropriate program can be discussed with the director. Each child's ability and current social, emotional and developmental progress will be considered to place the child in the most appropriate situation, instead of adherence to rigid age thresholds.

We do not discriminate on the basis of race, religion, cultural heritage, national origin, political beliefs, disability, marital status or sexual orientation in admission of children or administration of policies.
