Mill Road Elementary is pleased to announce registration for pre-kindergarten for the 2026-27 school year is open.
Any student who is registered with all documents submitted before March 1 is guaranteed a seat in the program.
Students registered after March 1 will be placed on a wait list and will be given a seat in the program in the order in which registration was completed until all classes are full.
Principal Dr. Brian Boyd and Assistant Principal Mrs. Kristen Strothmann will be hosting a brief informational session in the Mill Road PK-2 cafeteria 4 p.m. Jan. 29 to review the pre-K program and clarify steps to register.
"We are thrilled to have expanded our pre-K program last year,” Boyd said. “These early years are absolutely foundational to a child's educational journey, and we're proud to provide more families in our community with access to high-quality early learning experiences that set students up for success."
The free, full-day program runs five days a week and operates on the district's calendar. Our curriculum-based program blends play, socialization and structured learning, and aligns with state standards for pre-K instruction. Certified teachers and teacher aides are in each classroom, and class sizes are no larger than 18 students.
Students enjoy engaging activities including art, music, physical education and use of facilities like our Imagination Station, school garden and nature trail.
Students must turn 4 years old by Dec. 1 of the enrollment year to be eligible. Bus transportation is available to students ages 4 and older.
Required documents include:

• Immunizations and most recent medical record. If a student has a physical scheduled between now and September, their current medical record should be submitted.
• Birth certificate.
• Proof of residency.
• Parent photo ID.
• Custody paperwork if applicable.
