(2026-2027 School Year)

                The Re-Enrollment Period for our current WELC students and their siblings will be                 from January 8th through January 27th, 2025.

          New families that are Temple members may apply for spots beginning on February 3rd, 2026.                      A link will be available below on that day to fill in the online application form.                

            New families that are non-members may apply for spots beginning on March 4th, 2026.                

Thank you for your interest in our preschool program. If your child is new to WELC, you will first complete a New Student Application and email it to welc@the-temple.org OR mail it to WELC, 1589 Peachtree St. NE, Atlanta, GA 30309.  You must include the $200.00 nonrefundable application fee payable by check or credit card. This is a one time application fee, not a yearly one. Next, complete the attached online enrollment form once the link opens. After completion, you will receive a confirmation notice. When your child is accepted, you will receive an additional confirmation email and an invoice to pay the tuition deposit. If the class you selected is full, you will receive a notice confirming that your child is on the waiting list.  For questions about our enrollment process, please contact Robin at rreineri@the-temple.org.
