2025-26 ELS Application Form

2025-26 ELS Application Form

Thank you for your interest in the 2025-2026 school year at the JCC Denver Early Learning School. To secure a position in the waitpool, please complete our application and provide payment for a one-time $50 deposit per family. Applications submitted without payment will not be added to the waitpool. We do understand that each family’s financial situation is unique, and if submitting a wait pool deposit would create a financial hardship for your family, please contact us at the email provided below.

We’re sorry, but we do not share specific waitpool positions/numbers and are unable to offer guidance around the likelihood that a particular child will be enrolled in the future. Completing an application does not guarantee that JCC Denver will be able to enroll your child. We start each new school year mid-August. We typically contact families to enroll children in the upcoming school year in February. If we are unable to enroll your child, we will also contact you at that time.

If you have any questions about our program or the enrollment process please email earlylearningschool@jccdenver.org.

The following open-ended questions are intended to help us get to know your child and family better. We understand that depending on the current age of your child, some of these may not apply. If your child is not yet born, please fill it out based on your anticipated parenting approaches.
The ELS seeks to educate children in an inclusive environment where developmental and academic differences are celebrated and understood. Does your child receive any outside services? If so, do they have an IFSP or IEP? Please elaborate.*
The ELS uses a Constructivist teaching model which capitalizes on children’s natural sense of inquiry and discovery through hands-on exploration with the world around them. Through play-based learning, skilled educators can introduce and reinforce concepts we want children to learn in a way that engages each child’s interests. Through your own discoveries as a parent, why do you believe that the Constructivist teaching model would benefit your child?*
The ELS seeks a partnership with families to ensure the best learning environment for each child. Briefly explain your parenting philosophy and values that are important to you and your family.*
Is there anything else you would like us to know about your child or your family?*
