Age Requirements

To ensure children are placed in developmentally appropriate environments, ELI follows the public school system's cut-off dates:

Available Programs

3-Year-Old Program

Children must be three years old by July 1 of the enrollment year.

Collaborative Pre-K

Children must be four years old by July 1 of the enrollment year.

Application Process

  1. Online Submission

    Families must complete the online application form to be placed on the waitlist for their desired enrollment year.
  2. Waitlist Placement

    Applications are filed chronologically based on the date received.
  3. Notification

    During the Spring semester, the Director contacts families on the waitlist via email or phone to offer available spots for the upcoming August term.

    Once a spot is offered, parents have five workdays to confirm their interest before the opening is offered to the next family on the list.
