Enrollment Management allows centers to accept re‑enrollment requests as well as requests for additional enrollment (such as summer program enrollment) from currently enrolled families. The following section outlines the configuration steps required in Kangarootime to enable this feature. To view the experience from a parent’s perspective, please refer to How to Re-Enroll Your Child(ren).

Configuring Enrollment Management in Kangarootime
- Select Enrollment
- Select Settings
- Locate the Re-enrollment tab within this page
- Locate the Global Center Settings table
- Toggle Family Access to Enrollment Management from OFF to ON
- Toggle Requires Form Upon Re-Enrollment to ON if you wish all familes to review and modify their previous enrollment information
- Please note: Turning the Requires Form Upon Re-Enrollment toggle to ON will still require familes to pay any application or registration fee associated with the form.
Global Center Settings can be overridden at the center or school level by switching the Family Access or Requires Form Upon Re-Enrollment toggles from ON to OFF.
Please contact helpdesk@kangarootime.com if you do not have the Settings button within the Enrollment tab
Verify Age Settings in Your Classes
- Select Enrollment
- Select Classes
- Select the class you will associate with your enrollment program (Ex: Preschool School Class, for families enrolling children in next year's Preschool School Program)
- Within the Regulation box & Override Settings, view the age range
Children whose ages fall outside of this window will not be able to enroll. Make adjustments accordingly and Save (e.g., if your age range is 6 to 11, and you have a 5.5-year-old looking to enroll, you'll need to override the age settings to encompass all appropriate ages).
