Registration for the 2025/2026 School Year is now open!
There are FOUR STEPS in the Registration/Admissions Process. Please read these instructions carefully.
STEP 1: Complete the Registration Request Form Below – Completing this action will enter you into our registration queue but it does not guarantee an opening. This form will date and time stamp your request and this will be the order we use for registration. You will use this form to request registration for your child(ren) you would like to register for the 2025-2026 school year. This form asks for information about your child(ren) and family. There will be a place to make your 1st choice and 2nd choice class preference for each student. If the class(es) that you have requested are full, you will receive an email from the school letting you know that you have been placed on a waitlist. We expect this process to go quickly, but the first day or two will be extremely busy. Please allow us up to 48 hours to make sure we are processing everyone correctly.
STEP 2: Signup for Brightwheel app if you receive an email – If an opening in the class you choose is available, you will receive an email from Brightwheel. You will be asked to create an account in Brightwheel and download the app. Make sure that you use the same email account that you used on the above form AND that you also use that same email to create your Brightwheel account (not your phone number).
STEP 3: Complete the Brightwheel Admissions Process – You will receive another email from Brightwheel inviting you to start the Admissions Process. You will see multiple forms to complete.
- Complete Enrollment Form
- Complete Financial Commitment and School Policies Agreement
- Upload Birth Certificate
- Upload an up-to-date Georgia Immunization Form #3231 (or Notarized Religious Exemption Affidavit)
Our office goes through an approval process of your completed forms. We will be working in the order in which we received your Admissions Packet. You can check the status of your Admissions Packet under Paperwork on your child’s profile (Shared, In progress, Submitted, Changes Requested, Viewed, or Approved).
STEP 4: Pay registration fee within 48 hours of receiving invoice in Brightwheel – Once the above steps have been completed and approved, you will be invoiced through Brightwheel for the registration fee. The Admissions Process to secure a spot in a class for the 2025-2026 school year is not complete until this fee has been paid. You will receive a confirmation message through Brightwheel when registration is complete.
Any questions can be emailed to . We appreciate your understanding and patience with our office as we navigate this busy time.
We are currently accepting applications for substitutes. For more information, please contact .
