Pre-K seats are assigned on a first-come, first-served basis after all documents are submitted and reviewed, and program qualification is confirmed. To secure enrollment, families must receive written confirmation from the school's ADA.

A child must be 4 years old on or before September 1 of the current school year and meet at least one qualifying criterion established by the Texas Education Code.
