The Washington Central Unified Union School District registration process is available and open online for the 2024-2025 school year.
The Pre-K and K registration process must be completed for students who are attending our public school programs and students who are attending private, pre-qualified programs through Act 166 in 2024-2025.
Registration for Pre-K 3 is for students who are 3-years-old on or before September 1, 2024. Pre-K 4 is for students who are 4- or 5-years old (5-years old and not enrolled in Kindergarten) on or before September 1, 2024 from towns of Berlin, Calais, East Montpelier, Middlesex and Worcester.
Kindergarten is for children who turn age 5 on or before September 1, 2024. If you have not recently moved in to our district and your child already attends public Pre-K, they are already registered for Kindergarten in our district.
Please go to the our website at www.wcuusd.org and follow the directions after clicking the icon titled “Online Registration” located under the slides on the right hand side of our website or you will find more information under the “Pre-K Information” in the same area.
If registering for public Pre-K in your local elementary school, it is strongly suggested that families complete the online registration process by 3/29/2024 if possible. We will begin offering placements to students in the late spring. For Pre-K placements 4 year olds are given priority until the 3/29/24 date and then students are placed on a first-come-first-served basis, space is limited. If necessary, we will create a waitlist and will offer spots in our public Pre-K programs, also on a first come, first served basis. All registration paperwork must be completed before a placement will be offered.
WCUUSD offers childcare options through Community Connections in order to increase access to public Pre-K programs.
Please contact Kim Bolduc, Coordinator of Early Education and Expanded Learning Opportunities at Kbolduc@u32.org or 223-7936 ext. 305 if you have any questions regarding Pre-Kindergarten, Act 166, or Community Connections before or after care options.
