Preschool Admissions
St. Paul’s Episcopal Preschool welcomes applications at any time during the year. Parents can apply online or receive an application form by contacting the Preschool office at [email protected]. A non-refundable fee of $75 is due when your application is submitted. Following our priority admissions season, which ends March 1 st, we accept applications all year round. We appreciate your interest and will acknowledge your application.
The best way to get a feel for our school is to experience it. We encourage parents of prospective students to arrange a tour of the school and classrooms. Please contact the Head, Kristin Teeters, to schedule a visit for you and your child. You can call the St. Paul’s Preschool office at (703) 548-6089 or send an email to [email protected].
Once your application is received, your child will receive priority by date of application for the next year’s appropriate classroom. It is the policy of St. Paul’s Preschool to give first preference for enrollment to current students, siblings of children currently enrolled in the program, and to parishioners of St. Paul’s Church. Within each age group, date of application is key.
Should the class be filled, your child will be put on a wait-list and may be enrolled if any spaces become available. Your child’s application will only be kept on file until October of the next school year.
Enrollment contracts for new applicants will be mailed in early March and must be returned by April along with a 1/10 non-refundable deposit.
