In fall 2021 and winter 2022, we hosted a series of virtual events about 3-K, pre-K, and kindergarten admissions.
At each event, we walked families through how to create your MySchools account(Open external link), explore your school and program options, and get ready to apply. Each event covered the same topics, though some events were updated to reflect the opening and closing of the kindergarten application. Different events offered interpretation services across nine different languages.
