We accept students as young as 6 weeks of age and we provide programs all the way through our MSDE approved private Kindergarten program. We also provide Before/After school programs for students who attend local Elementary Schools. We are a 12 month school providing high quality educational programs for our students. We begin enrollment for the new school year in January but we have a rolling enrollment policy and will enroll all 12 months out of the year.
