Upcoming Registration Deadlines
- All registrations submitted for Spring/Summer programs by the 9:00 a.m. deadline on April 8 will be included in the computer lottery. Non-residents registration will not be accepted until April 12. When all registrations submitted by 9:00 a.m. on April 8 have been entered into the computer, the computer ‘‘lottery program’’ will randomly select the maximum participants allotted for the program. All remaining individuals for the program will be placed on a waiting list. The computer randomly selects participants for the programs. Therefore, whether you sign up on the day you receive your brochure or on April 11, your chances are the same. This ensures equal opportunity for all registrants.
- After the computer has performed the lottery for all first choice selections, registrants who do not get into their first choice and who list a second choice will be processed in a “second choice lottery.” If a registrant's second choice is already full, he/she will remain on the waiting list for his/her first choice. If a registrant’s second choice is open, he/she will be placed in the second choice class, and thereby waives computer wait list placement for his/her first choice as well as priority for the fall session.
- Class availability fluctuates according to registrations, drops, and transfers. Therefore, registration is confirmed only upon receipt of the confirmation email.
- YEAR 2013–2014 GLENCOE EARLY LEARNING CENTER REGISTRATION. This registration form should be used only for the 2013–2014 two, three and four year old preschool programs.
