OrchKids is enrolling students for the 2024-2025 school year through the application form at the bottom of this page. This is an application and not a confirmation of enrollment. Parents/guardians will receive the enrollment decision (accepted, waitlisted, or declined) for the 2024-25 after-school program in the fall (notification dates are outlined below). There are limited spaces for the 2024-2025 school year and enrollment will largely be based on a first-come, first-enrolled basis.

OrchKids is accepting new students for the 2024-2025 school year. Once a decision has been made, parents/guardians will receive an enrollment notification. We will send out a detailed program calendar to accepted families prior to the start of programming. We will discuss the program overview, student schedules, and other important details during scheduled, individual parent/guardian check-ins in the Fall.
Students who do not attend one of the schools above may enroll at Mary Ann Winterling or Highlandtown #237 if availability allows.
New students can apply at any time. Please note that students who enroll after September 6th will be put on the waitlist and will be contacted if and when slots become available. If accepted into the program, an individualized plan will be created in order for your student to start programming.
