Infant, Toddler & Early Learner Classes
We have a very limited amount of openings for younger siblings of children enrolled in Origins Jr or Sr Preschool. Currently the Infant & Toddler classes are full, we have 1 full time Early Learner (2 year old) opening.
If you need care for a 0-2 year old before we have an opening we will refer you to Precious Origins. They do not keep children past 2 years 11 months and children can move from there, here to Origins Preschool. Please call 406-493-1571 to inquire about their openings if we are unable to accommodate you.
*Precious Origins and Origins Preschool are two different schools under separate management.
Waiting List Policy
To join the waiting list: please fill out our Registration Request to sign up for our Portal.
Deposit: There is a non-refundable $75 deposit required to hold a spot on the waiting list. The deposit will be credited towards the registration fee once your spot is available. Once any days are available to you, we will let you know and you will be able to take the spot/s or pass to the family below you on the waiting list. If you choose to pass you will still retain your position in place and can wait until the next opening.
Waiting Time: Waiting lists timelines are determined by when children age out into another class and/or graduate to kindergarten. There are circumstances that may arise that would cause the time to be shorter, (ie someone leaving unexpectedly or dropping days). We highly recommend joining the waiting list sooner than later to decrease the waiting time which can be up to 2 years. We generally do not have openings mid-school year unless someone leaves unexpectedly. If the class is full, normally openings happen between July and the end of August, but can occasionally be earlier.
Holding Spots for Future Start Date: We can hold a spot open for 50% tuition for 1 month, then 75% tuition for 2nd month then we would need full tuition after that to hold a spot open for a future start date.
