Preschool Admission

Home Preschool Admission

Prospective Applicants

Our preschool admission process begins in November with our Annual Open House. Our Open House provides families to meet parents and teachers and learn more about our programs. After our open house, parents can schedule a follow up visit with their child for a half hour visit during a school morning. This visit will give parents the opportunity to see their child in our environment and to ask more specific questions of the classroom teachers. References are made available after this visit.

After meeting with our admissions staff, parents should complete and return an preschool admissions application with the $80 registration fee. We will confirm your child’s schedule after we receive the application. Once you have been notified of acceptance to one of our preschool programs a $500 deposit will be required at this time to reserve your spot. The $500 will be applied to your child’s final school month at Happy Day.

If you missed our initial Open House in November, please contact as soon as possible to schedule a one on one tour of our facility. Tours occur throughout the school day by request. Feel free to reach out to us by emailing, calling (617-325-0606) or by completing the contact form below to request a tour and tuition information sheet.

It is our preschool admissions policy to give priority to siblings of our current students and alumni families. We are a diverse school who also participates in the Massachusetts State voucher program, on a limited basis.

A second open house may be held in the Spring depending on our availability and school waitlist.

Thank you for your interest in Children’s Happy Day School. We look forward to meeting you and your family.

Returning Students

January 1st is the re-registration deadline for students already enrolled in the program and intending to return. A $75 registration fee should accompany the application. Applications submitted without a fee will not be processed.

We are aware that many private schools and the public school lottery in Boston have varying notification dates. If you wish to reserve a spot for your child, please submit an application and registration fee. We are unable to hold a spot without a preschool admissions application and registration fee.
