Registration for the 2025–2026 Character Builders Before and After School Program will be opening soon!
-
Priority Registration will begin on May 7th for current program participants, students still on the current waitlist, and siblings of fore-mentioned groups.
-
General Public Registration will open on May 14th. Please do not attempt to register before your designated phase. Early registrations from those not eligible for priority will be withdrawn, and you will need to restart the process—potentially losing your spot.
A detailed email outlining the step-by-step registration process and all requirements will be sent out prior to May 7th to help you prepare. If you are not currently on our mailing list and would like to receive this information, please let us know so we can add you.
Due to high demand, we strongly encourage families to register as soon as their registration phase begins. We look forward to an amazing year with your children!
