That is why Fort Wayne Community Schools is focused on helping young learners build a strong foundation for academic success beginning in pre-K.<\/p>\n<p>Through the Schools of Success, all FWCS students, including pre-K students, will be provided guaranteed experiences. In pre-K, students will learn connections between art and storytelling by pairing art at the Fort Wayne Museum of Art with a book. Pre-K students will then visit FWMoA or host a museum guest to see and discuss artwork and learn museum etiquette.<\/p>\n<p>To help families prepare for this educational journey, FWCS is hosting Passport to Pre-K from 5-7 p.m. Wednesday, April 9, at North Side High School, 475 E. State Blvd.<\/p>\n<p><strong>At Passport to Pre-K families can<\/strong>:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Learn about and register for pre-K programs<\/li>\n<li>Find out about On My Way Pre-K requirements<\/li>\n<li>Meet teachers and staff<\/li>\n<li>Receive transportation information<\/li>\n<li>Connect with community partners<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>FWCS offers a variety of full-day and half-day pre-K programs at neighborhood schools throughout the city. Every child who lives within the FWCS boundary is eligible for a pre-K program. Children must be 4 but not yet 5 years old on or before Aug. 1 to be eligible to attend pre-K. Getting registered early is important. It gives families more time to learn about their school\u2019s program, and it helps ease the student\u2019s transition to school.<\/p>\n<p>To register at Passport to Pre-K, families should bring:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Photo ID for all adults in the household<\/li>\n<li>Birth certificates for all children in the household<\/li>\n<li>Two proofs of residence (utility or medical bill, mortgage or rental papers, paycheck, etc.)<\/li>\n<li>Recent paystub<\/li>\n<li>Smartphone (not required)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Schools will hold their own pre-K orientations before the end of the school year. The first day of pre-K for the 2025-26 school year is Monday, Aug. 25, 2025.<br \/>\nParents wanting to receive more information about pre-K registration should call 467-2850 or visit <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fortwayneschools.org\/early-childhood-centers\/pre-k\" target=\"_blank\">https:\/\/www.fortwayneschools.org\/early-childhood-centers\/pre-k<\/a>.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>Related Images:<\/h3><div class=\"ngg-related-gallery\">\n\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/aroundfortwayne.com\/news\/wp-content\/gallery\/2009-trf-parade\/100436.jpg\"\n\t\t\ttitle=\"The North Side Marching Band in the Three Rivers Festival Parade on July 11, 2009.\"\n\t\t\tclass='thickbox' rel='96708354ffb32dc5328458494fdacf2a' data-image-id=\"3282\" data-src=\"https:\/\/aroundfortwayne.com\/news\/wp-content\/gallery\/2009-trf-parade\/100436.jpg\" data-thumbnail=\"https:\/\/aroundfortwayne.com\/news\/wp-content\/gallery\/2009-trf-parade\/thumbs\/thumbs_100436.jpg\" data-title=\"North Side Marching Band\" data-description=\"The North Side Marching Band in the Three Rivers Festival Parade on July 11, 2009.\">\n\t\t\t<img title=\"North Side Marching Band\"\n\t\t\t\talt=\"North Side Marching Band\"\n\t\t\t\tdata-image-id=\"3282\"\n\t\t\t\tsrc=\"https:\/\/aroundfortwayne.com\/news\/wp-content\/gallery\/2009-trf-parade\/thumbs\/thumbs_100436.jpg\"\/>\n\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/aroundfortwayne.com\/news\/wp-content\/gallery\/fwcs\/wendy_with_kids_2007.jpg\"\n\t\t\ttitle=\"Fort Wayne Community Schools Superintendent Dr. Wendy Robinson.
