2027-2028 Waitpool Registration
Our waitpool for the 2027–2028 school year will open on September 1st at 10:00 a.m.
How the Waitpool Works
Joining the waitpool does not guarantee placement for the 2027-2028 school year. Classroom placement depends on age, student birthdays, required ratios, and aftercare needs. Priority consideration is given to current Happyland families and members of First Presbyterian Church.
Families in the waitpool will begin receiving enrollment communication in February. If your child is offered a spot, you will receive an email with a registration link and will have 48 hours to complete the enrollment process before the space is offered to another family. Please be sure to provide an email address that you check regularly.
Tours will begin in October. Families are strongly encouraged to tour Happyland prior to February, as enrollment invitations have a short response window.
