North Bellmore Accepting Pre-K Registration

BELLMORE, NY - From North Bellmore School District: The North Bellmore School District will once again offer Universal Pre-Kindergarten to district children if funding is received from the State Education Department. Applications are available in district schools and may be picked up in the main office of each building on school days between 10 a.m. and 2 p.m. Information
about the program and the application are also available on the district website, www.northbellmoreschools.org.

The pre-K program, which is contingent upon state funding, will begin in September 2018 and run until June 2019 at no cost to selected families or the school district. Because there are a limited number of available spaces, participants will be selected by lottery.

Children who will be 4 years old on or before Dec. 1, 2018, and will be eligible to enter kindergarten in the district in September 2019, are eligible to attend. The program will take place at local preschools. Parents will not have a choice as to location, and transportation will be the responsibility of the parents.

Applications must be received by Friday, March 16. For more information, contact Janet Pollitt, assistant superintendent for curriculum and instruction, at 516-992- 3000 ext. 3002.
