PK Flu Shots
This is a friendly reminder that New Jersey requires all preschool (PK) students to receive an annual flu vaccination, unless a medical or religious exemption is on file. If your child has already received their flu shot, thank you for submitting the documentation. If not, we kindly ask that you provide proof to the nursing office as soon as possible. At this point in the school year, students who have not received the flu vaccination (and do not have an approved exemption on file) are unable to return to school until documentation is received. If you still need to submit paperwork or have questions, our nurses are here to support you.
PK Lottery is Open
The Burlington Township Board of Education will offer a full day Preschool program for the 2026-2027 school year. The number of available seats will be determined mid-March once budget projections are completed. The 4 year old program will be available for students who are Burlington Township residents and have reached their fourth birthday on or before October 1, 2026. The 3 year old program will be available for students who are Burlington Township residents and have reached their third birthday on or before October 1, 2026. Selection for both programs will be by random lottery drawing for all students who complete and return the Pre-K Enrollment Form by 4:00 P.M. on Wednesday March 11, 2026. Placement may be made in the program at B. Bernice Young School, Bustleton Road Annex, or Five Points Annex.
These forms are accessible from our website under "News and Announcements" at www.burltwpsch.org, clicking the link below, or by visiting the BOE Business Office which is located at 710 Jacksonville Rd. Hopkins Building door #16. Actual student registration will occur following the lottery process.
The links below contain complete details.
Both lotteries will be drawn at the Board of Education Work Session Meeting on Wednesday March 18, 2026 at 6:30 P.M.
The deadline to return the forms is 4:00 P.M. on Wednesday March 11, 2026.
Students that are currently enrolled in the District’s Preschool 3 Year Old Program will automatically be offered a slot in the Preschool 4 Year Old Program. It is not necessary to complete an application for the lottery or go through the registration process again.

Young children thrive on routine! When they come to school consistently, they build stronger friendships, feel more confident, and stay on track with important early learning skills. Every day really does make a difference!
