How To Enroll
Preschool Enrollment
If you want to enroll your student into the Bellbrook Preschool for the current school year or a future year, please complete the Google form below for the Preschool Waitlist.
The Preschool Waitlist form will hold a spot for your student on the preschool waitlist in the order received. Please fill out all of the information and HIT SUBMIT. You must be a current Bellbrook resident. Contact for the upcoming school year will typically be made by the end of April.

You will then pay a $100 deposit to hold your spot.
Preschool is currently $220 per month for typical students, and there is a one-time $70 supply fee. Students only need a backpack and a change of clothes for their additional supplies. They attend an AM or PM session four days a week for 2 1/2 hours; they do not attend on Wednesday. There is no transportation/busing for typical students. There are no guarantees for AM/PM.
If you believe you would qualify for a free lunch program (linked here), please let us know, and we will provide you with an application to see if you qualify for free or reduced preschool tuition.
