ENROLLMENT PROCEDURES

  1. Schedule a tour for the school location of interest.
  2. Come to the tour with questions about the program.
  3. Fill out an application form at the tour (no fee!)
  4. We will contact you when an opening becomes available for your child. In the email, we will send you the enrollment and immunization forms. Returning these forms along with your non-refundable registration fee and your deposit by the date given in the email will secure your spot.
  5. Schedule an orientation to review the school’s procedures and policies and prepare for your child’s first day of school.

*To meet licensing regulations, we enroll children based on their age at the time of the opening.
If there are multiple applications that meet the current opening’s age requirement, we will enroll children based on:

– priority level
– desired start date
– the date you toured and first contacted SLC

Priority 1:

Transfers from our other location and siblings of current students.

Priority 2:

Siblings of previously enrolled children and direct referrals from Seattle Learning Center families.

Priority 3:

Other new families.
