Prince George County Public Schools invites families to join us for our Pre-K / Kindergarten Registration Night on Tuesday, March 25, 2025, from 5 p.m. to 7 p.m. at each of the division's five elementary schools.

The annual registration night allows families new to Prince George County Public Schools to register for the upcoming 2025-26 School Year, which begins on Monday, August 18, 2025. Families planning to attend are encouraged to bring the following documents to registration night:

Also, families should bring their children to registration night to be screened. Resources will also be available for families to prepare their children for the upcoming school year.

For those parents who are new to Prince George and do not know their child's home school, please contact the Prince George School Board Office at (804)-733-2700 for further assistance with the registration process. Families can also visit the district's website and use the interactive school locator map to see their school assignment for the upcoming year by entering their address. The map is available in the Student Registration portal of the district website. 

If those unable to attend Pre-K / Kindergarten Registration Night on March 25, families are encouraged to visit the division's Student Registration portal on our website http://www.pgs.k12.va.us/studentregistration/. Registration forms are available to download and complete anytime, but families will still need to complete the registration process by making an appointment at their child's school.

Additionally, the event will allow families to apply to have their child participate in the district's preschool program. 

PGCPS' Preschool Program for At-Risk Four-Year-Old Children is designed for at-risk four-year-olds residing within Prince George County, aiming to provide a healthy learning environment that addresses the needs of preschool children whose social or economic conditions place them at risk of poor school performance. 

The state-funded, locally administered program focuses on providing quality preschool programs for those at-risk four-year-old children who are not being served by another program. To qualify for admittance to the division's preschool program, a child/family must meet at least one of the following four criteria:

  • Family income at or below 200 percent of federal poverty guidelines,
  • Homelessness,
  • Student's parents or guardians are school dropouts,
  • Students with special needs or disabilities with Individual Education Plans (IEPs), OR
  • Other local factors that families may qualify for.

Additionally, the child must be four years of age on or before September 30 of the enrollment year. An application must be submitted to the Prince George School Board Office for a child to be considered for enrollment.
