Preschool Registration for 2017-18 is Open
2017-2018 Preschool Registration
Registration for all ages of preschool students is now open for both online and walk-in registration. The online registration is through Eleyo (formerly FeePay) at https://johnston.ce.eleyo.com. Walk-in registration is at the Administrative Resource Center, 5608 Merle Hay Road, January 25 only from 8 a.m. – 4 p.m. All registrations will happen through Eleyo so parents are encouraged to set up an account in advance to help the process go faster. (Learn how to set up an account here.) Placement is on a first come, first serve basis until each class is filled. There is a $60 one-time non-refundable fee required upon initial registration. Immunization records and physical examination reports are required at the time of registration.
All necessary forms can be found on the Preschool Registration webpage.
Due to limited space in some of the buildings, we do not have the locations determined prior to registration, but you will be notified with the location once they are determined.
