Registration Priority

The Registration Process:

Registration is held in late January through March for the coming school year. Some enrollment openings may be available.

Placements will be made in the following order:

1.) Children of FUM Preschool staff members and FUMC staff members,

2.) Currently and previously enrolled FUM Preschool families,

4.) FUM Church families not currently enrolled in the preschool,

5) Members of the community at large.

Registration is usually complete by Spring Break, however, openings may occur around May 1st (when security deposits are due) and the first week of school, due to scheduling changes.

Choice of days is determined by seniority and seniority is based on family enrollment. Class placement is based on children’s birth dates. The Director determines final placement.

Please click our Class placement FAQs link for more information about class placement.

A non-refundable wait list fee is due with each child’s application to the Preschool. Click here for a hard copy of the FUMP WAITLIST APPLICATION, or use our electronic waitlist application below.
