During the enrollment process, all Pre-K applications go through a verification process to determine if the student is eligible for the free Pre-K program, including age requirements and TEA criteria. If the student does not meet these qualifications, parents will be notified once the tuition seats are open based on first-come-first-served. All notifications regarding the application are via email.

Once seats are available for the tution-based program, the account representative will contact families via phone and email to offer enrollment in the tuition-based program. The family will then proceed through the enrollment process in Brightwheel. Parents are required to sign up for Brightwheel to finalize the enrollment process and establish billing information.

Families must submit the child’s birth certificate and immunization records during the enrollment process. Additionally, once the tuition-based seats are offered, a Parent/District Agreement for Full-Day Pre-Kindergarten must be filled out and accompanied by a non-refundable $50 registration fee before the student’s application can be approved.

Ensuring that families submit required documents and agreements is essential for regulatory compliance, safety, administrative efficiency, and financial planning. These documents verify the child’s identity, health status, and commitment to the enrollment process.

Once approved, families will receive an email confirmation. Further information will be provided prior to the start of the school year.

Yes, there is a non-refundable registration fee of $50. This fee must be submitted along with the necessary documents and agreements to complete the enrollment process.

There are no refunds or credits if a child misses a day of school. The tuition is what saves the child’s spot in the program. Tuition is billed monthly for the upcoming month. Refunds or credits will not be given for unused days, vacations, or days not attended due to illness. Past-due tuition will result in the loss of the child’s reserved space in the program.

All payments, including registration fees and tuition, must be made online through the Brightwheel platform. Brightwheel provides a secure and convenient way for families to manage their payments and accounts.

No, students with outstanding balances will not be permitted to attend the program until the balance is settled. It is essential to keep the account up-to-date to ensure uninterrupted access to educational services.
