Enrollment
Each April the enrollment list is made for that August’s classes. Currently-enrolled children
are “moved” (on paper) to the next appropriate class for their age and
development. After this process is completed, the open spaces in each classroom
are revealed. The children on the waiting list are the first to be entered into
empty spots. The highest level of priority on our waiting list is for siblings
of our currently enrolled children. The second level of priority is given to
members of Oak Grove United Methodist Church. After that, spaces are filled
according to various factors such as child gender, age, and order of when the
person was placed on the waiting list. *If you are offered a spot and choose not to take it, we will go to the next person on the waiting list. It might be the next August or later before your child is able to get a spot again.*
Infant Enrollment
The infant room, like all of our classrooms, enrolls once a year in August. The highest level of priority on the waiting
list goes to siblings of currently-enrolled children and the second level of
priority goes to OGUMC members.
All infants born after August will have to wait
until the next year to get a spot, even siblings and church members. Infants born during the summer will have to
pay for the infant spot each month starting in August, regardless of when the baby starts
attending. Any spots that are
vacated during the school year will be filled by children on the waiting list
first. If no one is waiting, we will advertise the open spot.
*If you are offered a
spot and choose not to take it, we will go to the next person on the waiting
list. It might be the next August or later before your child is able to get a spot
again.*
