Registration and Enrollment


We believe in slowing down the pace of our lives. With this philosophy in mind, we invite parents and guardians to visit us sometime during the Fall and early Winter proceeding their child’s school start date. In this manner, there is no rush to secure a spot for your child.

Eligible students must be a minimum of 2 years 9 months by September of the school year. Registration occurs in January proceeding the school year and families will receive notification of enrollment within two days of the registration deadline. Priority is given to returning families, and if need be, a lottery is used.

A non-refundable tuition payment of half the total cost is due by March 1st and is considered a commitment to the program. The second half of the tuition is due by November 1st. The Lunch Bunch Program is a commitment for the entire year and is billed monthly. Tuition rates are given at the time of the visit to DNS.

Registration forms (two forms) may be printed online, but they are only accepted if a visit to the program has occurred in advance. Visit are available after October 1st and are scheduled by telephoning DNS at 508-785-0252.
