WELCOME
Congrats on your Admission!
On behalf of the Team, welcome to the family. We are thrilled to add you and your family to the tribe. As a small, family-owned business, we are incredibly grateful to do what we love. It’s your support that allows us to provide a warm and loving community for hundreds of kiddos, so thank you from the bottom of our hearts for the opportunity to serve you and your families childcare needs.
At our Academy, we like to think of ourselves as an extension of your family and want you to feel “homey" when you are at the Center. For this reason, we have dedicated this page to catching you up to speed with all things The Summit Academy. Read below for more information as you begin your journey!
NEXT STEPS
-
Complete the Childcare Agreement / Authorizations (return via email). Brightwheel (BW) is our platform used to provide daily updates, check your child in and out as well as process tuition payment. Next week, you will receive an invitation from BW to setup your account. Please complete this agreement as soon as possible.
-
After we receive your paperwork, please email us your billing preference: monthly or bi-weekly at TheSummitELA3@gmail.com for processing ✍🏼.
-
Provide your child’s / children’s most recent well-being summary and up-to-date immunizations from the doctor. This can be emailed or dropped-off at the Center on your first day. We must have all records up-to-date to maintain enrollment and meet the State's Health requirements. An immunization cheat sheet from the Center of Disease Control can be found here for your reference so that you are aware of the immunization schedule required for enrollment. You can also find the General Health Appraisal form here.
-
Review your Welcome Letter below. This Letter provides an outline of the Program in addition to the Supply List - a very important list of items needed at the Center on the first day.
-
Get to know your child’s teacher as listed in your Welcome email under our Team's Section below.
-
Infant Program Only - please complete the Individual Care Plan. This form can be completed digitally and will help our teachers get to know your child. It will provide us with their schedule, feeding, diapering, and sleeping routines among other useful information.
-
Younger Toddler Program Only - Children will transition to mats instead of cribs. Please sign the Cot Permission Form, and see the Welcome Letter above for new supplies needed, including a 24” x 48” sized fitted bed sheet and a blanket.
-
Toddler / Preschool Program Only - For special occasions, sweet treats may be offered in the classroom to celebrate with friends and teachers. All sweets will be nut-free and store bought to eliminate cross contamination. Please complete this Sweet Treats Form if you would like to grant permission for your child to participate in such.
-
Be sure to save our 2026 School Calendar for a list of our School Closures.
-
And lastly, please email or print a 4x6 picture of your child and family. Our classroom pictures become an important activity for your kiddos social/emotional development. We’d love to add your kiddo to the group of family pictures.
