February, 2011
I am writing
to inquire about the pre k program. Is there any way that
I could obtain information about this such as: is there a
waiting list or first come first serve, how much does the
program cost, and who runs the program?
Yes, the West Islip School District does
have a preschool program. The application for preschool is
posted on the district website. Applications are only accepted
within the registration window indicated on the website. Due to
the number of applicants, applications that fall outside the
registration window are invalidated. Parents are notified of
acceptance into the program after the budget vote in May.
Selection is through a lottery system and there is no charge for
the program. The program accepts approximately 15 students total
per year. Should you have additional questions regarding the
program, please feel free to call Ellen Quaglio, High School
Associate Principal at 504-5810 or e.quaglio@wi.k12.ny.us. She
oversees the Family and Consumer Science Department, which runs
the program.
