Registration is now open for 2025-2026!

Dear Current and Prospective CEC Families, 

Can you believe it is time to register for next year? 2025 is in full swing, even though we keep hitting some speed bumps with these snow days! We are already preparing for some wonderful things in the 2025-2026 school year. 

First up... 

Registration this year is going to look a little different. No more waking up early to come stand in line to make sure your child has a spot at preschool for next year. This year, everything will be ONLINE! We will still accept cash and checks in the office, if that is your preferred method of payment, but we will also accept ACH payments. This means, all invoices for next year will be sent via email, and you will be able to pay with a click from anywhere you desire. Please note that there is a $3 fee per ACH payment transaction, that will be applied to your account. 

On Monday, January 27th at 9am, the registration link will become active for children and grandchildren of current Christ United Methodist Church families and current CEC families. Registration will open to the community on February 3rd at 9am. Each child registering must have a separate, and complete registration form. Once you have submitted a completed form, you will receive an email confirming your submission. You will receive an additional email with an invoice for the registration fee. Registration is $100 for your first child and $75 for each additional child. Confirmation letters will be sent via email by March 1st. One month's advanced tuition is due in full by March 31, 2025 and will be applied to December's tuition. 

Wait List Policy (NEW 2025)- In the event that your first choice requested classroom placement is full, you will be notified that your child has been placed in the classroom of your second choice. Your child will be added to the waiting list for the class of your first choice. In the event that both of your requested classroom placements are full, you will be notified that your child has been placed on the waiting list. Following notification of an opening, you will have 48 hours to accept or decline the placement option for your child. If you do not respond, you will be removed from the waitlist. 

Please note that we have a limited number of scholarships available for families experiencing financial hardships. Please feel free to reach out to our office if you would like an application and additional information. 

We are so excited to finish out this year strong, with great anticipation for what is to come next year. We don't take the responsibility and privilege lightly, that you have made the decision to enroll your child at CEC and allowed us to partner with you in this journey. Please let us know if you have any questions or if we can be of any assistance to you and your family.
