Madison County elementary schools’ Pre-K registration applications due by June 17 | WHNT.com Madison County elementary schools’ Pre-K registration applications due by June 17 (WHNT) Several Madison County elementary schools received grants to start Pre-K classrooms in their schools. But, space is limited and registration time is running out.

“We will be able to create a Pre-K classroom which will serve 18 students here at Central School so we’re really excited about that,” Assistant Principal Susan Hancock said.

The Alabama Office of School Readiness awarded Central School a $150,000 grant to create a Pre-K classroom.

“Everyone is eligible; anyone can come to the school and pick up the registration packet,” Hancock said.

Madison County Schools received a total of $675,000 worth of grant money. Some of that money will start up Pre-K classrooms in Central School, Harvest Elementary and Riverton Elementary Schools this year.

“Kindergarten is so much more rigorous today than it has been in the past,” Hancock said. Hancock said.

Parents and guardians can pick up registration forms in each elementary school’s office or go to the Madison County Schools’ website.

“Each school has their own registration packet so you can just call the school and find out more information there.”

The only requirement is that a child is four by September 1st.

“Pre-K classroom is open to everyone,” Hancock said.
