What happened
In December 2025, district leaders described a standalone universal pre-K program at the Silas Wood Pre-K Center for 2026-27, with registration opening Jan. 12, no lottery, staggered start times to ease traffic, and paid before- and after-school care. It was planned for up to 15 classrooms with a play-based curriculum.
Why it matters to families
Families of 3- and 4-year-olds get a district pre-K in one building, and the grade-6 center that used to be at Silas Wood moves out. Parents need to register early so classes can be staffed.
The evidence
The Dec. 10, 2025 recording shows the presentation by the assistant superintendent and the new center principal. Later recordings report 213 registrations in March, 269 in September, and a state ribbon-cutting in September 2026.
