We are so glad that you want your child to be part of The Little School at our Duke location! If you have questions along the way, feel free to contact us, and we will be happy to help and advise.
COMPLETE APPLICATION
ONLINE APPLICATION & FEE
We strongly encourage you to complete an online application as soon as possible, as we maintain a healthy waitlist. We accept applications year round. You must complete a separate application and fee for each child you wish to enroll.
As part of submitting the online application, a non-refundable, one-time application fee of $50 will be required. After your application is received, you will receive an invoice from Brightwheel. (Brightwheel is a trusted childcare center software which automates billing, payment, and enrollment forms.)
AVAILABILITY & WAITLISTING
Once your online application has been submitted and fee paid, our Director will contact you immediately if an opening is available. If there is currently no availability, you will be added to the waitlist. You will remain on the waitlist until a spot is offered and accepted or until you request to be removed. There is no need to reapply. If you choose to defer when a spot is offered, we will simply continue down our list. You will not lose your spot on the list, and you will be contacted when the next spot becomes available.
Status of Enrollment Spots Available:
There is a limited number of part time (Monday/Tuesday/Wednesday and Thursday/Friday) spots available in various groups.
ENJOY A TOUR
Curious and want to take a group tour? A tour is not mandatory for enrollment, but we look forward to showing you around. We offer group tours throughout the year and invite you to sign up. Limited spots are available. If a tour is filled, please check back.
FINAL STEPS FOR ENROLLMENT
Once you have been offered and have accepted enrollment, all necessary forms will be sent to your email through Brightwheel. All forms must be submitted before the first day of enrollment.
As a parent/guardian of an enrolled child, you will be given access to further details and helpful information as your child joins us at The Little School!
We require all children to be up to date on all recommended vaccinations.
