Some things for NEW FAMILIES to bear in mind:
Applications for enrollment into the 2012-2013 year can be mailed between September 15 and November 15.
Please be advised that this is NOT a first come first served process for incoming new families. All
new applications submitted between September 15 and November 15 will bear equal weight.
Be flexible when choosing classroom locations: Not everyone will be
able to send their child to the closest BEEP classroom. Indicate all classrooms you are willing to attend and rank them in preferred order. (
For a map of classroom locations and descriptions, click here.)
In December: All parents/guardians who have applied are invited to an
informational session to learn more about the program. Attending this session is considered as part of the application process. Parent/guardians
will be given four (4) dates and times to choose from. Please click the 2012-2013 application process link above for a list of the
informational sessions. Any parent/guardian unable to attend the informational session should contact the BEEP administrative office at 617.713.5471.
APPLICATION POLICY
First priority in admission is given to those children returning from the previous year, and to siblings of students formerly
enrolled in our program. We make every attempt to balance our classes appropriately. Factors that are considered include, but are not limited to, gender,
age, primary language, special need, home school district and prior school experience. Age cut-offs are strictly followed. Proof of Brookline
residency is required. The Brookline Early Education Program does not discriminate on the basis of race, gender, ethnic origin or marital status,
disability, sexual orientation or political affiliation.
FINANCIAL AID INFORMATION
Families who wish to be considered for Financial Aid are required to submit a separate application and attachments with their enrollment application.
Families may receive tuition assistance by obtaining an income eligible voucher through the State of Massachusetts or through BEEP. Families with existing vouchers are expected to transfer their voucher to BEEP and maintain their voucher eligibility status.
Families who do not currently have a voucher but are voucher eligible will be placed on the Department of Early Education and Care's centralized waitlist with the information provided on the Financial Aid Application. Families accepted into the program will be expected to maintain their waitlist status.
Families who are not voucher eligible may still be able to receive partial aid and will be considered on a case by case basis. BEEP is able to provide partial scholarships through the Brookline Community Foundation Fund for Young Children.
Please click here to get the Financial Aid Application and more information.
PLEASE NOTE: If you decide not to send your child to BEEP but feel you are eligible for a low-income voucher, BEEP can still help you place your family on the Department of Early Education and Care's Centralized Waitlist. Simply submit the Financial Aid Application, without attachments, to the BEEP office at 115 Greenough St. Room 109B Brookline, MA 02445.
