Enrollment Process

How Enrollment Works

All students complete a 20–30 minute pre-enrollment assessment to ensure the best group placement.

1

Apply & Schedule Assessment

Reach out to schedule a 20–30 min in-person assessment at a convenient time.

2

Assessment Areas Covered

Letter recognition & sounds · Number recognition & counting · Fine motor skills (tracing, shapes) · Listening & following 1–2 step directions.

3

Group Placement

Your child is placed in the group that best matches their current skill level — not their age.

4

Ongoing Reassessment

Students are reassessed every 9 weeks to track progress and ensure the right group fit. Parent conferences follow each assessment.

📌 Placement is based on skill, not age

Every child learns differently. By placing students based on where they actually are academically, we create the most effective and encouraging learning environment for every child in the program.

📬 What to Expect After Placement

  • Updates sent via email or text
  • Reminders tucked in your child's folder
  • Some groups will receive weekly homework
  • Monthly sign-up sheet released 1 week early
Program Policies

What to Know
Before You Enroll

We keep our groups small and our standards consistent. These policies help us give every child the best experience.

🚫 Absences & Refunds

  • Unexcused absences receive no refund — spots are reserved and sessions are prepared in advance.
  • Excused absences: illness or family emergencies only.
  • Same-day absences are considered missed — not eligible for make-up.

🔄 Make-Up Policy

  • 1 make-up session per month (if space is available and you qualify).
  • Must notify within 48 hours of the absence.
  • If class is cancelled by the instructor, a make-up is provided for all enrolled.

🤒 Illness Policy

  • Do not bring your child if they have a fever, vomiting, or a contagious illness within the last 48 hours.

🕘 Drop-Off & Pick-Up

  • Arrive 5–10 min early for bathroom breaks & check-in.
  • Pick up on time — other sessions follow your child's.
  • 10-minute grace period; after that, a $15 late fee applies.
  • Late fee is due before the next session.
  • Continuous late pick-up may result in dismissal from the program.

🧡 Behavior Policy

  • If a child cannot be calmed within 15 consecutive minutes, a parent/guardian will be contacted for pickup.
  • Ongoing behavior challenges will require a parent conference to determine next steps.

📋 Group Waitlist

  • Each group holds only 3 students.
  • Once full, a waitlist is created.
  • You'll be contacted as soon as a slot becomes available.
