Lottery Process 

2023-2024


Our returning students will be placed in their programs first for the 2023-24 school year, as well as siblings of returning families.  Returning families have  until January 6, 2023 to register their child before opening registration to new families.


From Monday, January 23, 2023 through Friday, February 10, 2023 we are accepting applications for new students.  A non-refundable $50 registration fee is required (check or money order made out to the Town of Arlington).  Please note, you must be a resident of Arlington, MA and your child must be 3 years old before September 1, 2023.


On Wednesday, February 15, 2023 at 2:15 pm we will hold a lottery for new students to fill available slots in all programs as well as to determine the order of the waitlist. 


Due to school vacation, families will be notified no later than Wednesday, March 1, 2023 by a phone call regarding their acceptance into the program or their child’s position on the waitlist.  All families will also receive written confirmation of acceptance or a waitlist designation.


In the Spring, parents will receive registration information.  Registration will need to be completed soon thereafter, along with the first tuition installment, in order to maintain the child’s position within the program.  If we do not receive these items by the designated date, your child’s spot will be given to the first name on the waitlist.  


Over the summer months, families will receive additional information including their teacher’s name, school calendar, and promissory note.


We will reach out to families on the waitlist if a space becomes available.


Please contact us with any questions you may have, (781) 316-3698.


Sincerely,
