Waitlist
Please note, the waitlist button below is for those seeking enrollment for the 2025-2026 (current) school year. If you are interested in enrollment for the 2026-27 school year, you will want to participate in our lottery, which opens on January 14, 2026. Learn more about our lottery here!
The waitlist for the 2026-27 school year will open after the lottery for 2026-27 has closed!
Families may join our waitlist one of three ways:
Families who participate in the lottery and receive a class placement, but not their first choice, will automatically go on the waitlist for their first choice class. If you receive your third choice class, you go on the waitlist for both your first and second class choices.
Families who participate in the lottery and do not get a class placement are automatically placed on waitlists for all classes they selected on their lottery application.
Families who miss the annual admissions lottery may contact our Director of Families and Community to inquire about specific class availability and waitlists. You may also join our waitlist online.
Your waitlist application will be processed in the order it is received. Openings in all classes are filled from the waitlist through February 1, 2026 or at the Director’s discretion. DCP will call you and send an email if a spot becomes available for your child and you will have 48 hours to accept or decline the offer. We do fill from the waitlist throughout the year and in some years have exhausted the waitlist for some classes.
