PREKINDERGARTEN ENROLLMENT
Anna ISD educates eligible 4-year-olds in full-day Prekindergarten.
Each spring, Anna ISD hosts Prekindergarten Round-up to register students entering prekindergarten the following school year. To attend prekindergarten, students must be four years of age or older on or before September 1.
This early registration process gives parents information to ease the transition into prekindergarten and assists the District in planning for enrollment growth and staffing needs. Please take advantage of this opportunity to register your child!
