INTAKE PROCEDURES

A family wishing to enroll a child at Perry Park Preschool shall call the Director and set up an appointment to visit the school. During the visit, the family and Director will tour the school and discuss philosophy, goals and objectives, characteristics of children served, and the services provided. The Director will answer all questions asked by the family. If the family wishes to enroll, they will complete a registration form and pay a non-refundable registration fee. Upon receipt, by the Director, of the completed registration form and fee, the child is officially enrolled. The family will receive a registration packet to be completed and returned to the school during orientation, which is held prior to the start of school. During orientation, the packet, along with the first tuition payment, will be exchanged for a Parent Handbook, School Directory and Policies and other pertinent information to make the start of the school year successful. The new student will meet with his/her teachers and become reacquainted with the classroom setting. Children may be admitted to school on a rolling basis throughout the year if space permits.
