Dulin Preschool is run by parents. That’s why we understand and appreciate that parents want as straightforward an admissions policy as possible. At Dulin Preschool, we don’t require families to get on wait lists years before children are eligible (or born!), nor do we expect families to camp out in a parking lot.

The application process begins with taking a tour of the preschool and/or attending our annual Open House, which takes place in January. Although it is not a requirement, we strongly encourage parents to view the video tour of the school and attend our Open House. We have found that this is the best way to make sure that Dulin is a good fit for your family’s needs. Being a member of a cooperative preschool is incredibly fun and rewarding for both parents and children, but it also requires a certain amount of time, commitment, and accountability. If you cannot attend our Open House, please contact our Admissions Chair.
