Pre-K Checklist

• If you haven't already, complete and submit your online Pre-K Acceptance Packet prior to the start of school. This online packet contains forms that are required for enrollment into a MNPS Pre-K program. Completion of this step will finalize  your child's Pre-K Acceptance. Please check your email regarding the Pre-K Acceptance Packet.

• Visit the MNPS Back to School webpage and your child’s school webpage for information on school supplies, uniforms, etc.
