Enrollment Process

We accept applications at any time before October 1. Enrollment for the upcoming school year takes place in the spring and summer, depending on eligibility and availability. Applications are reviewed in the order they are received; however, we do not enroll on a first come-first served basis. Priority enrollment may be given to siblings of currently or previously enrolled families, and we reserve the right to determine which families will be a good match for our program.

When an opening becomes available, it is offered to families in the following order:

Siblings of currently enrolled families
Siblings of families that were previously enrolled
Families on the waiting list (priority is given to families who support an Integrated Schools and Pay What You Can Model and who live in SW Aurora and SE Denver,and families seeking full week enrollment)

Once an application is received, we will reach out to schedule a forest school visit. If a space is offered for your child, we will provide an online access code for all required enrollment forms. These forms must be completed and returned along with your holding fee and forest pack fee. This will enroll your child and secure their place in the program.
