PRE K REGISTRATION
What documentation do I need to register my child for Pre-K?
Information concerning enrollment and residence requirements can be found on the Enrollment Process and Requirements page.
What if there are no remaining seats for Pre-K at the school for which my child is zoned?
Your child's name will be added to a waiting list. Openings will be filled in the order that completed applications were accepted. You will be notified as soon as a slot becomes available. Any children remaining on the waiting list may be offered a slot at one of the other elementary schools if slots are available. We will continue to place children in the order that completed applications were received. Parents will be responsible for transportation of their child if an assigned slot in another school zone is accepted.
My child's immunizations expire before school starts. What do I need to do?
If your child's immunizations will expire after the registration period and before the first day of school, simply obtain an updated immunization form, Form 3231, from your child's doctor or the Department of Health and return it to the school's Registrar.
I do not have an Eye, Ear, and Dental form for my child. What do I need to do?
Children enrolling in a Georgia Pre-K Program are required to have a hearing, vision, and dental certificate on file with the school. Form 3300 can be obtained by your child's doctor or the Department of Health.
Do I need an appointment this year?
No. Parents will need to go online to complete the registration application and submit their documents. If you have trouble with the process, you can call the Central Office at (478) 994-2031.
Will my child be tested for Pre-K?
No. Pre-K students are not assessed before entering Pre-K. Assessments are made continually throughout the year on the instructional standards. The results are shared with parents at the end of each semester.
What supplies will my child need?
