Admissions During COVID-19

Interested in our Schools?

Are you an Essential Employee needing child care?

We are here to help and are accepting applications! During this unprecedented time, NES is working diligently to provide a safe preschool environment. We have been operating well following our COVID-19 Policies and Procedures, since April at our Alexandria location. Our DC location opened in June for Summer Camp and has also operated well. We are strictly adhering to the policies and procedures for preschools set forth by the Centers for Disease Control (CDC), DC Health, and VDSS.

NES SPECIFIC POLICIES/PROCEDURES:

  • Safe Distance/”Stay in your Lane” Drop offs and Pick ups

  • Scheduled Family/Parent Drop offs and Pick ups

  • No Lunch Bags, Snacks, Nap Rolls, Pullups, Wipes, Creams etc. allowed in the schools from home

  • Only care-givers, living in the home, are allowed to Drop off and Pick up

  • Light Colored Clothing on Children (to withstand small amounts of cleaning sprays)

  • Using a two/three door entry system with parents remaining outside all doors, each door provides another level of sanitation before children enter the school

  • Utilizing touch free sign-in and sign-out procedures

  • Medical equipment (heat, UV, scanning and other sanitary considerations) added to school

Take a look at our detailed policies and procedures which include our drop off/pick up maps for DC and Alexandria. Fill out an application to start our admission process. Look below for a step-by-step enrollment process.
