Registration Information 2008-2009
Registration for current families, alumni and church members takes place on February 1st, on a first come-first served basis. These families have priority enrollment at this time. Acceptance of registration forms begins at 7:00 am on this website by filling out the forms section on the link button at the bottom of this page. The forms site will be open for families in the priority enrollment period until 7:00 pm on the 1st. After you fully complete your form and submit it, it will be emailed to our account, time and date stamped. Only those families who qualify for priority enrollment applications will be accepted. If you are not in the above stated group and register, your application will be disregarded. We will process the priority enrollment forms based upon the time and date it was received, giving first choice to each family in the order in which the registrations are received. We will try to give you your first choice option, but there are no guarantees. Please type carefully, and fill out the form completely, as this becomes our data base to notify you later. If you do not have access to a computer you may still do a regular paper form on February 1st at 9:00 am, when the doors open for school and we will place your form in with the online forms already received. Once you submit your registration, you need to bring your registration fee ($85) to preschool on your child’s next preschool day to hold your spot. Failure to pay the registration fee on time will result in removing your child from next year’s enrollment. If you miss the February 1st-priority enrollment time, you must register as a new family and follow the instructions below.
There will be no requesting of teachers this year. We will place each child where we feel is best.
Currently enrolled families will receive confirmation letters by late February, and will have until May 1st to remit their curriculum fee and advance tuition payment (the tuition deposit for May 2009 payment) towards next year’s tuition. This extra time is to help parents not have to make the March tuition payment and an advance tuition payment at the same time, avoiding financial hardship on your families.
Alumni families from past years at our school, with no children currently attending, and Haymarket Baptist Church members will submit their registration fee within 5 business days, and will submit their curriculum fee and tuition deposit after receiving their confirmation letter, following the stated remittance date listed on this letter. Church membership is defined as 1 yr of membership, and is determined by the church staff.
Open Registration for new families takes place February 11th and thereafter until all classes are full and waiting lists begin. On February 11th at 7:00 am you will be able to access the forms area of this website, from this registration page. Please complete the entire form and your choices for class days and times and submit. Please fill out the form completely and correctly, as this becomes the data base to notify you later about placement. Please select as many choices as you are willing to accept for preschool.You will have 5 business days to remit your registration fee of $85.00 to us (checks made payable to HBCP and dropped off or mailed to PO Box 182, Haymarket, VA 20168. Put your child's name in the memo portion of the check.). By mid-March you will receive either a confirmation letter or a phone call, stating your status for the 2008-2009 school year. Remember, we fill classes on a first come-first served basis. We will attempt to give you your first choice, and if unable, we will contact you about accepting your second or remaining choices. Whichever choices you select on the registration form, we will contact you about those, and offer those to you as they are available. If you choose not to accept one of the choices you selected on the form, you will not be refunded your registration fee. Once we have discussed options with you by telephone, we will send you a confirmation letter. You will have a date to accept the position by, and must return the completed confirmation form, signed and including the fees for curriculum and one month’s tuition (this is called the tuition deposit, which is held for your May 2009 payment). If you are not able to register online, you will be able to stop by the school office on February 11th or later, after 9:00 am and fill out a paper registration form, attaching the registration fee. This application will be sequenced in with the other emailed forms according to the date and time you registered. This online format does away with our past history of all night camping in the parking lot, or car lines until midnight. Please note that you cannot register earlier than February 11th at 7:00 am. If you attempt to register earlier, we will not honor your registration, or hold it until the 11th. You will simply not be registered at all. So please register at your appointed time to avoid disappointment. Past history has shown that classes are sold out within minutes. Past history has shown that classes are sold out within minutes. The online registration will remain open until 7 pm on February 11th. After this date and time, the online registration will no longer be an option for you. You can come into the office to fill out a form. If you are put on a waiting list, do not give up. We often open new classes in the late summer, if we have space, and children do move or withdraw for many reasons, even into the fall time frame. Your registration check will remain attached to your form until we have placement for your child, or until Oct 1st, at which time we will shred your check, but retain your registration form should changes occur beyond October. If we contact you with a placement anytime between March 1st and Oct 1st and you decline the position, your registration fee will not be refunded. Please feel free to contact the office with any further questions. Good luck to you, we hope that we will be able to meet the needs of your child and family this next school year.Class Options, Tuition Rates and Fees / Required Documentation
