Preparing for the 2026–2027 School Year
Returning Preschool Students
If your child will be returning to Bright Futures next year, they do not need to be rescreened. Their enrollment is secure for the 2026–2027 school year. However, you MUST STILL REGISTER for the 2026-2027 school on Skyward. Registration opens on Wednesday, April 15, 2026!
Typically, students remain in the same classroom and session for the following school year. During parent-teacher conferences, you were given a preference form to indicate whether you would like to request a session change or have your child considered for the full-day classroom.
Please note that submitting a preference form does not guarantee placement in your first-choice program, as fewer than 40 spaces are available in the full-day classroom. Current income verification is required to be considered for the full day classroom.
