Admission & Enrollment

We are thrilled you are considering to enroll your child at Genius Kids. We value and respect each family who chooses to enroll their child(ren) with us and work hard to maintain our goals with each child and family, so that each family is happy with their decision with choosing Genius Kids. 

Here are the steps to complete enrollment for your little genius. As a service and convenience to parents, you must contact the respective center that you wish to enroll with to confirm availability and also because each center has its own specific forms and enrollment procedures. 

    1. Upon receipt of the enrollment package, you will print them, complete them and schedule a time to meet with the Center Director to submit the complete package and fees to complete the enrollment for your child. Licensed child care centers will require a recent Physician’s Report and  updated immunization records. School age children will require additional forms for transportation.
    2. Each center offers the same curriculum, so that would be guaranteed no matter which Genius Kids Campus you enroll your child at. However, being individual franchises, each center may have their own set of policies pertaining to payment of tuition, operations and other operational requirements. It is imperative parents review the Parent Handbook prior to enrollment.
    3. Siblings each require their own independent enrollment forms and parent handbooks. The sibling discount varies from 5-10% as per franchise center specific to them. There is no general sibling discount. 
    4. A payment plan must be selected one week prior to the start date of your child. All tuition is paid via cash, check or online and must be paid before the child’s first day of attendance. The approved accounting systems used by franchises are NeatSchool and BrightWheel. Each center has its own Federal Tax ID number for receipts which are also available online from the respective softwares used.
    5. Any changes to payment plans, withdrawals or other pertaining information is always required in writing.

    Any concerns with any centers, parents are welcome to write to the corporate center for verification at info@geniuskidsonline.com.
