Admissions

The Teddy Bear Club does not discriminate on the basis of race, gender, religion, cultural heritage, political beliefs, marital status, sexual preference, disability or national origin.

Admission Procedures for New Families Before submitting an application, we encourage parents to visit the school with their child, and to consider our general philosophy and program goals in relation to their child’s needs. Parent interviews and tours may be scheduled by calling (617) 332-1611 between 8:30 a.m. and 4:30 p.m.

Completed applications must be submitted with a $50 non-refundable application fee. Please note that applications sent by fax will not be accepted. Applications are processed on a space-available basis. Since we cannot always guarantee placement according to one’s first choice, it is strongly recommended that parents indicate at least two choices on the application form. Within one week of notification that a new student has been accepted for enrollment, parents must return the Enrollment Contract enclosed with the Admission Letter along with the registration deposit in order to reserve a place for the student for the forthcoming school year.

Admission Pocedures for
Existing Families
Mid-November is the re-registration deadline for students already enrolled and intending to return to The Teddy Bear Club in the fall.  A new application form and a $50 non-refundable application fee must be received on or before that date to secure placement in the early enrollment process. Since we cannot always guarantee placement according to one’s first choice, it is strongly recommended that parents indicate at least two choices on the application form.  Enrollment notification packets are sent to families by mid-December. Parents are required to send a completed Enrollment Contract along with a non-refundable registration deposit by the end of the month to ensure placement for the upcoming year.
