Enrollment

Registration

Center tours are your first step toward enrollment as they will allow you to observe the program and ask any questions you may have before enrolling.

We accept children from 2 years of age through children ages 5 years old. Traditional Care Hours are Monday through Friday, 7:30 am to 5:30 pm. Enrollment shall be open to any child, without discrimination provided CSP can meet the needs of that child.

If parents have any major educational, social, or developmental concerns about their child entering CSP, parents need to discuss these concerns with the Director before the child’s first day of class. Children with special needs will be considered based on the qualifications of teachers. A positive and appropriate learning environment must be established for each child.

Creative Spaces will make an individualized assessment about whether it can meet the particular needs of the child without fundamentally altering its program.

To enroll your child, a registration packet must be completed and Registration Fees must be paid.

Criteria for Determining Placement

Since each child is unique and develops at their own pace a child’s social, emotional, cognitive and physical development will be discussed with each parent during the registration process to determine acceptable placement and if Creative Spaces will be able to accommodate the needs of the child. Children with special needs will be considered based on the qualifications of teachers.

Classrooms

New classroom groupings are formed each July/August, as our preschool children move onto Pre-K or Kindergarten. Each classroom’s enrollment is planned and decided by the Director.  Unfortunately, requests for a specific classroom may not be possible. Since each child is unique and develops at their own pace a child’s social, emotional, cognitive, and physical development will be discussed with each parent during the registration process to determine acceptable placement and if CSP will be able to accommodate the needs of the child. It is our goal to make CSP a safe place for all children, regardless of ability, to be challenged and grow. We meet the child where they are developmentally.
