Preschool Registration for 2017-18 opens Jan. 25

Johnston Preschool (Ages 3-4)

The Johnston Preschool curriculum is based on the Creative Curriculum for Preschool, early literacy concepts, Zaner Bloser writing, and Everyday Math. Students are engaged in activities and learning opportunities to grow socially, emotionally, physically, and cognitively in the early learning environment. Maximum number of students for 3-year-olds is 16 students with two teachers. Project Ready for School Scholarships are available for qualifying students.

Our 4-year-old preschool receives funding from the Iowa Statewide Voluntary Preschool Program. This funding provides an opportunity for all young children in the state of Iowa to enter school ready to learn by expanding access to quality preschool curricula for all four-year-old children. There is no fee to attend our four-year-old preschool other than the $60 initial registration fee. The maximum number of students for 4-year-olds is 20 students with two teachers.

Johnston Preschool (Age 2)

This is a lively and fun exposure for young learners to experience a variety of age-appropriate learning activities and opportunities through stories, songs, snack, and center choice exploratory time. Our goal is to provide a learning environment to help children continue to develop their skills and abilities. The maximum class size is 11 students with two teachers. Project Ready for School Scholarships are available for qualifying students.

2017-2018 Preschool Registration

Registration for all ages of preschool students will open on Wednesday, January 25, 2017 at 8:00 a.m. for both online and walk-in registration. The online registration is through Eleyo (formerly FeePay) at https://johnston.ce.eleyo.com. Walk-in registration will be at the Administrative Resource Center, 5608 Merle Hay Road. 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 will also be required at the time of registration. Due to limited space in some of the buildings, we will not have the locations determined prior to registration, but you will be notified with the location once they are determined.
