Waitlist Pool

If a class is full by the time you pay the first invoice, you will be placed in a waitlist pool. Often an opening will occur, because:
- Enrolled families sometimes have to withdraw from the program because of job change or other reasons.
- If enough students are waitlisted, we would consider adding another class to accommodate more students.
A waitlist pool is not a "first-come, first-served" queue but a pre-enrollment designation. If and when openings occur in a previously full class, CRE will review each family in the waitlist pool, determine priorities and extend invitations to enroll as deemed appropriate.
You must pay the first tuition invoice in order to have your child placed in the waitlist pool.
If no opening arises or you decide to remove your child from the waitlist, you can receive a refund of the (otherwise nonrefundable) first tuition payment.
After Jan. 15, when the enrollment process for the upcoming academic year opens to new families, special consideration is given first to families who have remained on the wait list pool.

Discount for four or more children

Families enrolling four or more children pay regular tuition only for the first three and receive a 50% discount on each additional child's tuition. Discount applies to the youngest child / children.
