Re-enrollment Information
1.
Families will receive an emailed SignNow link with each child’s re-enrollment contract. Only one parent’s signature is required, and the contract will be sent to the first parent/guardian listed in Child Pilot unless the family specifies a different recipient.
2.
Please carefully read the Re-enrollment Overview and contract, paying close attention to deadlines and all terms and conditions.
3.
This year our licensing agency requires a separate Annual Medical Update and Emergency Contact form for each child rather than one per family. This document will be included in the same email as your re-enrollment contract.
4.
We’re happy to announce that this year, deposits and other fees can be processed and paid directly through Child Pilot, eliminating the need for a separate invoicing process! Deposits are due within five business days of receiving the re-enrollment deposit invoice.
5.
Your child’s enrollment will be confirmed only after the deposit is paid and the signed PDF copies of the re-enrollment and emergency contact forms are received and signed by administration.
6.
Applications for Pre-Elementary (Nido, EY, and CH) Summer 2025 camp are included in the re-enrollment contract to help spread out payments and avoid overlapping with regular tuition. Elementary summer camp applications are separate, as the camps are offered weekly. Due to space constraints, summer applications are accepted on a first-come, first-served basis.

How do I apply for the Summer Program?
Returning Pre-Elementary (Nido, EY, and CH) Students
Families with children in the pre-elementary program who are returning in the fall should use the re-enrollment contract, due by February 18, to secure a spot in our summer program.
Alternatively, families may apply separately during the open enrollment period beginning on February 19, using the Summer Application form. However, space is not guaranteed for late applications, and the tuition rate will be higher than during the re-enrollment period.
Note: For students who will be rising 1st graders in the fall, please contact the school to determine whether they should be enrolled in CH or in our elementary camps for the summer.
Pre-Elementary (CH) Students Not Enrolled in the Fall
Pre-elementary children transitioning to another school in the fall are still eligible to apply for our summer program. The application period opens during general enrollment on February 19. Please note that space is limited, and priority is given to returning students, so availability cannot be guaranteed.
Elementary Camp Applications
Elementary summer applications are offered on a week-to-week basis and are not included in the re-enrollment form. Instead, parents of returning students will receive a separate elementary summer camp application form during the re-enrollment period.
After February 18, elementary camps will be open to current students not returning in the fall, alumni, and referral students, in that order. Due to limited availability, we may not be able to accept all applications during open enrollment. Families unable to secure a spot will have the option to be placed on a waitlist in case of a withdrawal.
All summer applications received after March 1st will be considered late and are subject to a $75 late enrollment fee.
