Registration for the Marlborough Early Childhood Center 2025-2026 school year will begin Monday, January 13th, 2025 and end March 14th, 2025.  Registrations received after March 14th, 2025, will automatically go on the waitlist.

The Marlborough Early Childhood Center uses a lottery system for admitting students into ECC classes. To qualify for the lottery, parents or guardians must complete ALL the registration materials. Once all the paperwork is completed, your child will be entered into the lottery.  If your child is currently enrolled, you do not have to register them again. We will be asking you to pick a session preference(AM, PM, Full-Day). Reminder, full-day options are just for students in the PK1 program

• Registration documents must be completed in full and can be returned to the ECC between 8 a.m. and 3:30 p.m. Monday through Friday (except holidays).

• Parents or guardians who submit completed registration documents by March 14th 2025, will be contacted in May with an appointment time to bring their child to the ECC for an academic and developmental screening.

 The age timeline for each program is below:

PK3: Must be 2.9 years old by 8/31/2025

PK2: Must be 3.0 years old by 8/31/2025
