Carroll Kids Afterschool Registration
Winter 2026
We’re so excited to share the Winter 2026 enrichment lineup! Our new session will run from Monday, January 5 through Wednesday, April 1, a period of 11–12 classes depending on the day of the week.
New This Winter: The Lottery System
This winter, we are introducing a lottery-based registration system to make enrollment fairer and less stressful for families. Instead of racing to register the moment classes open, parents will have time to review the guide and submit ranked preferences for each day of the week.
Here’s how it works in brief:
- You’ll receive a lottery form on Monday, November 10, and you’ll have until Monday, November 17 to submit your choices.
- Families will then receive individual registration links from Sawyer on Wednesday, December 3.
- General registration for any remaining spaces will open on Wednesday, December 10.

Lottery Instructions & Tips
- Set Up Your Sawyer Account
Carroll Kids uses Sawyer for all registration. If you haven’t purchased your 2025–26 family membership, please do so before submitting your lottery form.
➤ [Purchase your membership link]
➤ [Log in or create your account link] - Check Your Account Details
Make sure your name and email on the lottery form match your Sawyer account exactly, and that all children you want to register are listed with the correct grade and classroom.
➤ [Update your Sawyer account link] - Use One Account per Family
Please register all your children under a single Sawyer account. Duplicate accounts cause placement and billing errors and may be deleted. - Submit by Monday, November 17 at 10:00 AM
Only forms submitted by the deadline will be included in the lottery. Families who miss the deadline can register during open enrollment starting Wednesday, December 10. - Need to Make Changes?
You may submit a new lottery form anytime before the deadline. Each new submission replaces your previous one, so be sure to include all children and all days again when resubmitting. - Choose Wisely
For each day, rank up to three class choices. Selecting only one class does not increase your chances, but don’t include a class you wouldn’t want to accept. - Confirm Your Submission
You’ll receive an email receipt after submitting your form—please check it carefully. If something looks off, resubmit a corrected form before the deadline. - After Registration Opens
When registration links are sent on December 3, double-check that your child’s grade, classroom, medical, and pick-up information are accurate in Sawyer.
