Enrollment

For the past 14 years, the Passage Program has run at full capacity, 110 students.  Due to the increase in childcare needs, we have a wait ist.  Most of our turnover occurs when going from school session to summer session and then summer session coming back to school session, therefore we have 2 separate waitlists available.  Each list opens exactly one year prior to enrollment.   You may request to have your child's name placed on both lists as long as they open.  Placing your child's name on the waitlist does not guarantee that your child will be enrolled in the Passage Program.  We suggest that you have or make a 'Plan B' should we not be able to accommodate your request.  As a general guideline, Passage begins the registration process for the School Session at the beginning of July.  We will make every attempt to make this a speedy process, but it is quite possible that we will be making calls as close to two weeks before school starts.  

The process of finalizing our roster for the summer session begins the week we return from Winter Break.  Our goal is to have the Summer Session Roster finalized by the end of March.  Please keep in mind that once your child is enrolled in the Passage Program, the spot is yours to keep year round for as long as needed assuming payments are current with no student behavior issues.  Parents who have students that need only the summer session or only the school session, must request that their child's name be placed on the following year's waitlist. Passage can not make any assumptions as to your childcare needs and will not guarantee that your student will be invited back into the Program as space is limited. 

Please note:
All waitlists have permanent open dates for each Session!

All Summer Waitlists will open June 1st,  at 12:01am, one year prior to the date of service.

All school year Waitlists will open August 20th,  at 12:01am, one year prior to the date of service.

Any waitlist requests that are made prior to these dates or times will be denied. It is highly suggested that you place your students name on both lists and take the "spot" if it becomes available!

Please keep in mind that if a student leaves the Passage Program for any reason, their spot will not be held.  Parents are responsible for requesting that their child’s name be placed on any open waitlists. All waitlist requests must be made online via our request form.  We will direct all phone calls and emails to use the online request form. 

 It is also important to note that at the end of each session(end of school year and end of summer), the current waitlist expires.  Names are not carried over to the next list! 

Please contact vpankey@ppcusd8.org  if you should have any questions or need assistance with the request form.
