Admission

Children ages 2-5 years old are eligible for admission. Parents are encouraged to take a tour of the school prior to registering, where families will be able to see the program and classroom and cover expectations and the curriculum. Registration will be processed online, and the application must be completed in full in order for students to start. This includes bringing supporting documents as needed- current immunization records and a physician’s statement, as well as hearing and vision for those who are four and older. Depending on space/availability, children are enrolled and can be placed on a waitlist if necessary.

Finacial Assistance

At the YMCA of Metropolitan Dallas, we strongly feel that income should not be a barrier to joining the Y or participating in our programs. Anyone can apply to receive financial support. Eligibility for financial support and the amount of financial support that can be given is determined on a case-by-case basis. Learn more about our financial assistance: HERE
