Students applying for grades Kindergarten trhough 5th grade:

Pre-K Registration for next School Year
All parents wishing to apply for Horn's Pre-K program must apply through the School Choice Application website.
Pre-K students do not need to be zoned to a specific elementary school, since not all elementary schools offer a Pre-K program. Therefore, there is no priority given to zoned students for a specific campus.
Schools will place TEA eligible (non-tuition) applicants prior to placing any TEA non-eligible (tuition) applicants. There will be sibling priority for approximately the top 25% for those who qualify for TEA eligible Pre-K.
Please pay close attention to your school choice ranking selections.
Non-Tuition Pre-K Criteria
To be eligible for enrollment in Horn Elementary's non-tuition based prekindergarten program, a child must be 4 years of age on or before September 1st of the enrolling school year, reside within the Houston ISD zone, and one of the following:
