REGISTRATION DATES
January 16-21, 2024 for Oak Park Temple Members January 22-28, 2024 for Glasser Preschool Families January 29, 2024 open to the community REGISTRATION INFORMATION Fees are due at registration. One Month's Tuition Deposit Your one month's tuition deposit will be applied to the month of May 2025. Cancellation by May 15, 2024 will result in a refund of the one month's tuition and the on-temple member fee. After May 15th, the one month's tuition deposit will not be refunded unless the position is filled by a child on our waiting list. Supply Fee A non-refundable supply fee is charged to each semester. The first semester fee is due at registration. The second semester fee is due in January 2025. Non-Temple Member Fee The non-Temple member fee of $150 is due at the time of registration. This fee is paid once a year per family. If you join Oak Park Temple by September 2024, this fee will be applied to tuition. CLASS PLACEMENT Morning and Afternoon 4 year old Classes Registered four-year olds will be divided equally between the morning (Tigers) and afternoon (Bears) class. The Director will conduct a lottery to determine class assignment if more people express a preference for one time slot than are spaces available. 1st Lottery: Temple members with enrolled siblings of different ages. 2nd Lottery: remaining Temple members. 3rd Lottery: current GPS non-temple members with enrolled siblings of different ages. 4th Lottery: remaining current GPS non-temple members. 5th Lottery: all remaining registered children. Five Day a Week Three Year Old Class Depending on enrollment, we will have an option available of a 5 morning 3 year old class. If you are interested in this option, please indicate this on the registration form. You will be notified in February. Wait Lists Wait lists will be formed for any classes that are full. If your first choice class if full, your child will be placed on the wait list for that class and be registered for your second or third choice unless you cross out these choices on your registration form. Children with September and October birthdays If your child has a September or October birthday and you would like them to be placed in the older class (i.e. in Lions/Zebras/Giraffe rather then Gan Katan or Tigers/Bears rather than Lions/Zebras/Giraffe), please register for their age correct class and indicate on the registration form that you are interested in moving your child up to the next age group. You will be contacted by the Director in early February regarding space availability and the appropriateness of the placement. Priority for all class placements will be given to children to meet the age deadlines. Children do not have to be potty trained. When the child is ready, the teachers will work with the parents to make potty training a success. |
