Due to House File 2493, changes are coming to preschool enrollment guidelines in Iowa.

We will continue to offer our free, three full-day preschool programs at each of our elementary buildings. An optional fourth day is available for a fee.

Children aged four on or before September 15, 2027 are eligible to attend. Beginning in the 2027-2028 school year, children turning five between March 15- September 15 may also attend.

Due to these changes, next school year, 2027-2028, will be the last year of our Transitional Kindergarten program.

To enroll in preschool, follow these steps:

Step 1: Mark your calendar for Pre-Registration on January 11, 2027. The pre-registration form opens at 12 noon and entries are time stamped. You will be invited to register your child based on availability. Pre-registration does not commit you to enroll; it simply indicates interest.

Step 2: Official registration begins on February 22, 2027. Instructions for registration will be communicated by email.
