Pre-K Interest Survey - CLOSES MONDAY, APRIL 6, 2026

Pre-K Interest Survey - CLOSES MONDAY, APRIL 6, 2026

Scarborough Public Schools is thrilled to share that we have the unique opportunity to expand our Pre-K programming and pilot classrooms for the Fall of 2026 at no new additional costs to the budget! As many of you may know to date we currently have 1 pilot classroom for 16 students at the Shooting Stars Program in Scarborough, and we are looking to grow more opportunities for early learning within our schools.

Please complete this form if you would like your child to be considered for enrollment in Pre-K programming for Scarborough Public Schools for the fall of 2026. Please note that your interest here is NOT yet a confirmation of placement, but is an interest gathering tool to assist us in finalizing our planning. More details will follow, based on overall interest. Please be sure to fill out all fields so we can follow up with you in a timely way. The requirements are as follows:

  1. You are a resident of Scarborough.
  2. Your child is eligible for public Pre-K (turning age 4 on or before October 15, 2026).
  3. You would like your child to be considered for the pilot programs, which will include a screening process.

Additional Program Details:

  • Scarborough Pre-K is tuition free.
  • All Pre-K class sizes are capped at 16 students, with a certified teacher and ed tech in each room, per state requirements.
  • The program follows the Scarborough Public Schools' calendar.
  • Enrollment is determined by Pre-K and Public School administrators.
  • Enrollment is dependent on meeting State requirements including registration paperwork and immunizations.
  • The current Pre-K pilots do not support enrollment of students with significantly specialized educational needs at this time. This is something we are looking to add in the future as we take on special education programming from CDS for 3 to 5 year olds.
  • NOTE: it has not yet been determined if the district has the resources to provide transportation at this time. This information will be clarified and communicated at a later date.

Possible Program Choices will include:

  • a 9:00 am to 2 pm program at Shooting Stars on Route 1 in Scarborough, OR
  • a half day session model at Blue Point or Pleasant Hill Schools, dependent on space availability, of which the morning program would run from 8:30 to 11:30 and the afternoon program would run from 12:30 to 3:30 pm (approximate times while we are in the planning stages)
