PRE-K DATES

  • All students who are starting school in HISD for the first time next year must submit an application to indicate they want to attend their zoned school. In most cases, students who want to attend their zoned school will automatically receive a seat and will NOT need to participate in a lottery process. There are some exceptions when the elementary school does not have space (see below):
