Your Application
Enrollment for the school year begins the spring prior to the school year with Priority Enrollment for current students first. Eastgate Christian Preschool is a year-round school and enrollment is continuously filled throughout the year and summer as space becomes available. The school year runs from September through May. The summer program runs June through August. Applications are accepted year-round. All families sign contracts at the time of enrollment. Please note that the contract states that you are responsible for the full year’s tuition unless a 30-day written notice is given to the office.
Registration Fees
A non-refundable registration fee is due for each new ($175) and returning ($125) child at the time of registration along with updated paperwork. This is necessary for your child’s placement, covers the cost of setting-up/maintaining your preschool account and provides an emergency pack for your child.
Additionally, a $40 Technology Fee per family is due at Registration to cover the cost of the school’s subscription to Brightwheel. Brightwheel is a helpful platform for families to check their child in and out daily, as well as an easy way for teachers to communicate with families throughout the day.
We reserve the right to discontinue enrollment if the policies and procedures of the preschool do not meet the needs of parents and children.
Our school offers a full-time program along with extended care. If parents require part-time options, please don't hesitate to contact us. We strive to accommodate every family's needs, and if space is available, we would be delighted to assist.
