Open Enrollment Starts Soon!

On Thursday evening we hosted our annual Open House for new families to come tour our facility and meet our staff! As always, it was wonderful meeting so many amazing families and it gets us so excited for our open enrollment period! There's nothing we'd love more than to welcome every single family that attended our open house into our little CDS family, but unfortunately, with limited space, it just isn't possible. If you've read previous blog posts, you know that I desperately long for a school that can provide more classrooms and space for our sweet students. One day we will get there, but until then, we are grateful to be holding another enrollment period in our little school and are thrilled to meet those families who will be joining us for the 2018-2019 school year!

Open Enrollment will begin on Thursday, February 1, 2018. We will post a link here and the post will be shared on our Facebook page as well at 8am. If you wish to enroll your child, you will click on the link, fill out the simple form and submit. By completing this form, you are not guaranteed a space. This is simply a request to enroll. All forms will be time stamped and processed in the order they are received. 

Starting on Monday, February 5, 2018, we will begin sending out emails to notify you of your enrollment status. Instructions will be included in the email for how to proceed with the process and confirm your child's space. Deadlines for paperwork and the new student fee will be outlined in the email as well. If you miss a deadline, your space will be given to the next child on the list. No exceptions will be made.  

If your child does not receive a space, they will automatically be placed on our waiting list. Don't give up hope if you are added to the waiting list! We have seen it move dramatically in the past due to changing family situations, moves, etc. It's still possible to receive a space before school starts or even after our school year has begun.  

We will be working hard to process all the enrollment requests we receive but it is a time consuming task and will take us a few days to complete. Our office staff answering calls will not be able to confirm if you received a space or not, you will need to wait for the confirmation email. Every person that submits our enrollment form will receive an email notifying them of their enrollment status by  Friday, February 9, 2018. If you have not received an email from us by then, please contact us. Emails have ended up in spam folders in the past so make sure to check there also.

Again, we are very excited to get to know all our new families! We are honored that you have chosen our school and look forward to partnering with you to help your sweet kiddos learn and grow. If you have any questions about the enrollment process, please contact Caroline at 910-383-3919 between 10am and noon or by email at caroline@coastaldayschool.com.

Thanks :)
