Student Enrollment and Requirements

Ages of Children Accepted

Sherman Preschool enrollment age is in alignment with Morgan County School District Re-3.  Children who are 3 years old by June 15th of the calendar year are eligible for acceptance and can continue preschool education until they are eligible for kindergarten.

Sherman Early Childhood Center does not discriminate based on race, ethnicity, religious affiliation, sexual orientation, gender identity, lack of housing, income level or disability.

Children We Serve 
The Sherman Preschool serves children three to six years of age.  The classrooms are composed of children who have been identified as having special needs and children who are developing typically.  The children who are considered to be developing typically are admitted into the program to model developmentally appropriate behavior and language skills.  Parents are required to re-enroll to the program every year.

Entrance Requirements

The first step would be for the families to fill out a preschool application and complete a developmental screening.  The following steps would take place after the preschool application is complete and submitted to the school office.  Families would wait to receive acceptance notification.  Upon receiving acceptance into the program, the family would then complete registration online and their child will be placed in a preschool classroom.  The family would hear from the preschool teachers in the fall and then attend open house and begin school.

Prior to the first day of school, the school must have:

  • a copy of the student’s immunization record, 
  • enrollment forms,
  • birth certificate, and  
  • a statement of Health Status (must be returned to the school within 30 school days of enrollment).

If your child does not have all entrance paperwork he/she will not be able to attend school.  If you do not have it within 10 days you may forfeit their spot in the program.
