Dear Parents,

We are excited about the opportunity to serve you and your child(ren). Please continue by completing an ONLINE Application. Our goal is to have parents complete the online application process and then we will call you for an appointment to sign all forms.

If you are not able to complete an online application, we will have enrollment events scheduled soon. Please note, we request that children do not come with you to complete forms.  Public restrooms will not be available.  We will respect the social distancing order of the Governor, masks will be required, and temperatures will be taken prior to entry of the building.

By completing an application, it will not guarantee you are enrolled as we will enroll children based on age and income, and not by the first-come-first-served basis.

We look forward to meeting you in person in the near future.
