    We are inviting all families with young Husky Pups to register for Universal Pre-K next year. Children are eligible for Olean's Universal Pre-K program if they are Olean City School District residents and will be 4 years old by December 1, 2025 (but not yet 5 years old). Classrooms are available at East View Elementary, Washington West Elementary, and the Olean Head Start Center.  

    The 2025-26 Universal Pre-K Registration form is available HERE. Paper copies of the form will be provided at the Visit and Registration Night and are also available at each elementary school and the registration office. Registration forms are due by Friday, April 4th. Registrations received after that date will be accepted based on availability. Families do not need to bring any documentation to the Visit and Registration Night. 

    Please contact Jen Mahar, Director of Special Programs, at jmahar, then @oleanschools.org or call 716-375-8039 for more information.

    Who is eligible?

    Any child who resides in the District and is four years old on or before December 1st of that school year.

     

    Will my child be enrolled in the program upon receipt of my application?

    No.  Since the program is grant funded, there are a limited number of children that can be enrolled. 

    If there are more eligible children in a given year than openings in the program, a lottery will be held. 

     

    When will I receive notification that my child was accepted?

    Letters of notification will be mailed.

    Can I select the building my child will attend?
