Temple ISD offers full-day pre-K at Meridith-Dunbar Early Childhood Academy. To qualify, students must be at least four years old by Sept. 1, 2021 and meet one ore more of the following criteria: educational disadvantage, limited English proficiency, be the child of an active-duty armed services member, be in foster care or homelessness.
Full-day kindergarten is offered at each of the district’s eight elementary campuses for children who are five years old by Sept. 1, 2021 without meeting any additional eligibility criteria.
The first part of the registration process begins on the Temple ISD website www.tisd.org by clicking on the “Enrollment” button. Once this online step is completed, the parent can call the campus to schedule an appointment to come in-person and bring the required documentation.
Required documentation includes student’s birth certificate, proof of address, student immunization record, student’s social security card and the parent or legal guardian’s photo ID. Proof of eligibility, such as a military ID or Child Protective Services placement letter, may be required for pre-K enrollment.
Families who need access to technology can schedule an appointment with the campus to come in person and complete the online information.
