Beginning in the 2026–2027 school year, the Highmore-Harrold School District will no longer offer a district preschool program. In partnership with the community, Little Pirates Childcare Center will be expanding its services to provide programming for a larger number of 3- and 4-year-old children.
Screening for Preschool, Jr. Kindergarten, and Kindergarten will still take place as scheduled on April 14 at the school. Parents of children who are 3 or 4 years of age will be asked to sign a waiver allowing screening results to be shared with Little Pirates Childcare Center so they can best serve students who enroll in their program.
Little Pirates Childcare Center plans to share more information about its expanded program in the coming days.
