Celebrate your Little Learner’s Milestone
There’s no bigger deal than starting pre-K! That’s why Arlington ISD is hosting its third Pre-K Signing Day on Thursday, April 3, from 5-7 p.m., at your child’s school. Your child is starting a new, exciting chapter in their lives, so come out next week for a chance to celebrate this momentous milestone and get your child registered.
“Since we believe that pre-K should be a magical experience, we make Signing Day a special and unforgettable experience for our new students,” said Dr. Jackeline Orsini, Arlington ISD director of early childhood learning.
It’s going to be a lot of fun. Just like high school athletes declare their college choice and sign a letter of intent, your child will get to sign a certificate declaring their status as a rising pre-K student. You’ll get a fun photo of your child declaring their intent to learn and grow!

Signing Day will also be a great opportunity for your family to walk the school building for the first time and visit the pre-K classrooms.
“Building strong relationships with families is crucial for the success of our students,” Orsini said. “Signing Day gives us the opportunity to connect for the very first time with all our new families. It’s really a special day that no one with a future pre-K student should miss.”
Come meet pre-K teachers and school staff, and check out the amazing student artwork on display. You’ll get a sneak peek at how our incredible teachers blend fun with world-class learning opportunities. Plus, you can get help and support with completing the registration for your child, so bring registration documents with you.*
