Preschool Registration for the 2023-24
The Medinah Park District preschool program offers your child a comfortable, safe and fun environment for learning. Our program is semi-structured and focuses on developing socialization, self-confidence, fine and large motor skills as well as pre-kindergarten and kindergarten readiness skills. The Medinah Park District preschool incorporates the kindergarten curriculum from Medinah School District #11 into the program. The children will develop these skills at their own pace through play, craft projects, stories, songs and special activities. Our main goal is to help your child acquire the joy of learning and attending school. Children must be toilet trained and be the appropriate age by September 1, 2023.

Play School is for the child who is not quite old enough for our preschool program but is ready for social interaction away from mom. Songs, stories, age appropriate craft projects and of course playtime will develop your child's socialization skills. Children will explore, discover and learn through play and your child will become more comfortable in a "school" environment. Your child does not have to be potty trained; however, no diaper/pullups will be changed during class time. Pull-ups are permitted however, a parent/caregiver must be available to change if needed. A $25 non-refundable deposit is required at time of registration for the 2023-24 school year. Registration fees are paid in three tri-mester payments during the year. *See Preschool payment schedule.
