Dear Temple Israel Family:

As we embark on another Admissions season for the Early Childhood Learning Center, we wanted to invite you to join our Early Notification Program (ENP). As a Priority Family* at Temple Israel, you are eligible to apply early and to receive your admissions decision well in advance of the typical timeline.

If you choose to participate in ENP as a priority family, it does not guarantee admission; however, it does entitle you to receive your admissions decision before our regular notification timeline. You should participate in ENP only if Temple Israel is your first choice AND you will be prepared to commit, if you are accepted, by December 15, 2023.

If you choose not to participate in ENP, you will follow the regular admissions timeline and be considered for admissions as part of our general applicant pool. Temple membership does not guarantee your admission, members and non-members are considered equally.

To opt in for ENP, please submit this form, with your signature and your completed application by 3pm on Friday, November 17, 2023.

Early notification offers do not roll over into regular admissions deadlines. If you choose to decline an early offer of admissions, your application will be removed from our applicant pool. You can request to be put on the waiting list, which will be reviewed after the close of the admissions season.

Would you like to opt in to the Early Notification Program?

THANK YOU FOR YOUR INTEREST IN OUR PROGRAM!

Please Note: Because the Early Childhood Learning Center is an integral part of the Temple Israel family, and our space is limited, admission to the ECLC is reserved for those families who are currently, or wish to become members of Temple Israel of the City of New York.

Temple Israel ECLC offers limited financial aid based on need. The school’s financial policy is part of our commitment to providing excellent Jewish early childhood education to families who wish to be a part of our community.
