Prospective Families

How to Enroll

How to Enroll Families are encouraged to apply to Jubilee JumpStart (JJS) early, taking into consideration the high quality program that JJS has to offer and the intimate size of our school.

Families may apply to JJS at any time by completing the Pre-Enrollment form that can be picked up in the center. In alignment with the mission of Jubilee JumpStart to provide high quality care to low income families, 75% of enrollment is reserved for income eligible families.

Priority in enrollment is given as follows:

  • Siblings of children currently enrolled in Jubilee JumpStart
  • Residents of Jubilee Housing who meet income eligibility requirements
  • Employees of Jubilee JumpStart, Jubilee Housing and the Family Place
  • Other Income Eligible families

Waitlist If there is not an immediate opening for your child upon submitting the Pre-Enrollment Form, your child will be placed on the waitlist based on the priority enrollment criteria. If you have questions or concerns regarding your child’s placement on the waitlist please feel free to contact us at 202-506-4607.
