Frequently Asked Questions


What families does Moscow Day School serve?
Moscow Day School serves all families in our community. Our school serves children ages 6 weeks to 5 years old.

How does the wait list work?
Child care is highly competitive in our area. We will send email confirmation once all items are received and your child is placed on the wait list. We do our best to accommodate your anticipated start date, however there is no guarantee of availability. You will be contacted via email or by phone regarding availability, but are welcome to call or email the school directly to check on your child's wait list status. 

                     Questions? To contact Moscow Day School, call 208-882-8426 or email moscowdayschool@frontier.com

If Moscow Day School doesn't have openings, who does?
Call 2-1-1 from any Idaho landline and ask for Child Care Resource and Referral. They will be able to connect you with child care providers in your area. 
 
Do you accept ICCP?
Yes, you may begin the process through the Department of Health and Welfare. You will be responsible for paying tuition in full until we receive a projection letter indicating the amount the school will receive monthly for your child. This letter comes to the school monthly once you qualify. 

Do I need to make an appointment to visit Moscow Day School?
Parents of enrolled children are welcome any time during the day. Perspective families are always welcome, but calling ahead to schedule a tour is appreciated to ensure we have availability.
