Registration Information Summer 2026
Initial enrollment is open for new families March 16th - March 24th. All applications received during that time will be considered equally (registration is not first-come, first served). If interest exceeds capacity, we will have a randomized lottery for the spaces available. Little Star reserves the right to prioritize enrollment for families that need care to work, attend school, are enrolled in the WCCC program, or are enrolled in support services.

We do our best to enroll everyone who registers, and ask for your patience and flexibility during the process. Families will be notified no later than April 14th about their enrollment status. We will accept applications on a rolling basis after March 24th. Applications for financial aid are due on April 1st. For more information, see our Draw FAQs or Registration Information Sheet.

If you would like to be on the mailing list for registration emails, please fill out this Interest Form.

Email Emily Nelson at emilynelson@littlestarschool.org for more information or with any questions.
