priority

Priority Registration for Kindergarten through 8th grades begins on Monday, January 29 for currently enrolled families.

  • Why register so early for next year? The end of the school year comes up fast. We will need to begin budgeting, purchasing curriculum and figuring out staffing for next year very soon. Without early knowledge, it makes it impossible to do the "business of the school".

  • Why is priority registration so long? So families with multiple students can spread out their enrollment fees. In fact we encourage this.

  • Can I still register after March 31? Of course you are able to register after March 31. However keep in mind that you may have forfeited your spot in the class by waiting. You will also be assessed a late fee.

  • What if I am not able to pay the registration fee by March 31? Let Kelly Meyer know AS SOON AS POSSIBLE so we can assist you with the many tools we have at our disposal. The longer you wait, the less tools we are able to help you with.

After March 31 enrollment will be considered on a first come - first served basis. For any questions, contact Kelly Meyer at kelly.meyer@sasmanteca.org

PRIORITY REGISTRATION FOR PRE-K AND PRESCHOOL OPENS JAN. 22

Registration for the 2024-2025 Pre-Kindergarten and Preschool classes opens on January 22 through February 29. After that date we will open registrations to outside families. Don't lose your spot, register early.
