Dear Parents/Guardians:
I have some exciting news. Preschool Registration for children who plan to attend Eatontown Public Schools in September 2023 has been extended due to the New Jersey Department of Education notifying the district in July 2023 that another preschool classroom has been funded by the state. Due to a limited number of spaces, please register your child as soon as possible to secure a seat for September 2023. Due to timing concerns, registration will be on a first-come, first-serve basis until the seats are filled.
Online Registration
Parents/Guardians may complete registration for Preschool students online at:
https://www.eatontown.org/page/kp-registration.
Registration Packet Pick-Up
Parents/Guardians may pick up a registration packet from the Administrative Offices between the hours of 9:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. on Monday – Friday.
