Enrollment Process
Please note that if a member of a priority group misses their deadline, they are put into the next group and may have to go through the lottery process or be placed on the wait list if necessary.
1. The VP of Membership/Enrollment collects all in-house application forms and fees. After the January 6 deadline, he/she creates a preliminary roster. In rare cases, a lottery may need to be held if too many people request a certain class. In the unlikely event that a current family cannot be placed in any class for a particular age, they are placed on the wait list.
2. The VP of Membership/Enrollment collects all alumni and Church members application forms and fees. After the January 15 deadline, he/she adds these children to the roster. If there are more requests than there are spaces available for a particular class, a lottery is held. Anyone not getting a spot is placed on the wait list.
3. The VP of Membership/Enrollment collects all application forms and fees from new families. After the January 31 deadline, he/she finalizes the class lists. Again, if there are more requests than there are spaces available for a particular class, a lottery is held. Anyone not getting a spot is placed on the wait list.
4. If applications are received after the final deadline, they are accepted on a first-come, first-served basis for any available spaces, or are added to the wait list in the order they are received.
Application Fee
A $75 nonrefundable application fee is due at time of registering.
