REGISTER YOUR CHILD
In September 2005, PMCS will enroll children age
three through fourth grade. The cutoff for birthdays is September 1st (i.e.
to be eligible for enrollment this year, the youngest children must turn
three by September 1, 2005 and the oldest children must not turn nine before
September 1, 2006).
For
the 2005-06 School Year, PMCS will hold a lottery on April 1st for
three-year-olds only. All other grades are currently filled.
Families will be notified if their children are accepted or added to
the waitlist.
