Pre-Registration

Online pre-registration will take place between Monday, February 18, 2019 at 8:00 a.m. and Sunday, February 24, 2019 at 8:00 p.m.

Since our classes fill up quickly, we strongly encourage everyone to pre-register and reserve a spot in line.

If you did not pre-register online you can still come at 11:00 a.m. on March 8 and register after the pre-registered families.

When is pre-registration and registration?

We encourage families to pre-register online prior to coming on the day of Registration. Online pre-registration will be enabled on our website (CommunityPreschool.org) beginning on Monday, February 18, 2019 at 8:00 a.m., and closing on Sunday, February 24, 2019 at 8:00 p.m. Registration will be held on Friday, March 8, 2019 in the Community Preschool gym. Families who pre-register online will receive earlier registration times than those families who do not. During the week prior to Registration, you will receive an email with your time slot and number in line. If you do not pre-register, you can arrive at Registration at 11:00 a.m.

Do I need to pre-register online?

Pre-registration will determine the order in which you will be able to register on Friday, March 8, 2019. Your registration slot is based on the time that the online form is submitted, and your status at Community Preschool (Current Family, Alumni Family, New Family). Since our classes fill up quickly, we strongly encourage everyone to pre-register and reserve their spot in line. However, if you do not pre-register online you can still come at 11:00 a.m. on March 8th and register after the pre-registered families.

What can I expect when I pre-register online?

To pre-register for the 2019–2020 school year, visit the Community Preschool website (CommunityPreschool.org) and enter the requested information in the form. The information you submit will allow for online correspondence prior to Registration. Once you click Submit on your pre-registration form, you will see a text confirmation in your web browser that the form was received. (You will NOT receive an email confirmation.)

Your pre-registration submission places you on a list chronologically based on when you submitted your form. Once the pre-registration period closes, the list will be compiled according to priority groups (Current Families, Alumni Families–you, your spouse, or your children previously attended Community Preschool, New Families) and you will receive an email with your assigned registration time and number in line. You will then need to bring your assigned number to registration on March 8, 2019 at your allotted time, with your completed 2019–2020 Registration Packet in hand. Please contact a class coordinator with any questions by going to the Contact page.

What do I need to do before registration day?

Prior to coming to Registration on Friday, March 8, you will need to fill out the required forms in the 2019–2020 Registration Packet. Also, remember to bring your checkbook to pay the required $75 non-refundable registration fee, and two printed photos of your child (2″ x 3″ recommended).

Download the 2019-2020 Registration Packet (pages 1-5). The registration packet will be available online at the end of our online pre-registration. You can print it and fill it in by hand, or use Adobe Acrobat Reader to fill in the information digitally, print it, and add your signatures (https://get.adobe.com/reader). We also have printed copies available in the hallway at Community Preschool. Be sure to fill out a separate Registration Packet for EACH child you plan to register for the 2019–2020 school year.

I am working or out of town during registration. How can I register?

If I don’t pre-register online, can I still register for a class on registration day?

What can I expect on registration day?

When you arrive at your assigned registration time, Ms. Tammy will review your registration packet. All pages must be completely filled our with no blank spaces. The process will be as follows:

- 1. Sign up for open classes or be placed on a waiting list.
    A child may be enrolled in one class and then placed on a wait list for a second class if your first choice class is not available. Enrolling your child in more than one class is not an option. The possibility of having your child enrolled in your first choice class may be available if that particular class has openings the week before school starts. The child may then be added on a first-come, first-serve basis from the wait list. If you have any questions, please contact the board president.
  2. Sign up for a community job.
  3. Pay the $75.00 non-refundable registration fee (one fee per family, not per child).
  4. Turn in the completed 2019–2020 Registration Packet to your class coordinator.
