Thanks to the AGISD Board of Trustees for ensuring we have a quality instructional program for Pre-Kindergarten. They have approved adding a third section of PK in order to keep class sizes small, comply with state guidelines, and better serve educational needs. All PK classes will be full-day for 2020-2021 and future years.

To be eligible for the free Pre-Kindergarten program, your child must be 4 years of age by Sept. 1 and meet an eligibility requirement as required by Texas law:

- The child is educationally (economically) disadvantaged: Eligible to participate in the National Free or Reduced-Price Lunch Program based on family income.

-The child has ever been in the conservatorship (foster care) of the Department of Family and Protective Services (DFPS), as well as children in a conservatorship as a result of an adversary hearing. This includes children returned to home, kinship placement, and/or adoptions.

We are taking these measures to stay in compliance with the state. If your child does not meet the above requirements, feel free to register them, he/she may be accepted on a first come-first serve basis after all eligible students have been enrolled and if space allows.
