Future-Ready Kindergarten (FRK)

About Future-Ready Kindergarten

Is your child entering kindergarten in the fall of 2026 and not currently in preschool?

NTPS Future-Ready Kindergarten is a free, transitional pre-kindergarten program for children who are scheduled to enter kindergarten in the following fall. Classes will focus on social-emotional and early learning skills needed for school.

The program will be offered to families who live within the boundaries of:

  • Chambers Prairie Elementary
  • Horizons Elementary
  • Lacey Elementary
  • Lakes Elementary
  • Lydia Hawk Elementary
  • Mountain View Elementary
  • Olympic View Elementary
  • Seven Oaks Elementary

Students qualify to apply the year before they are eligible to attend kindergarten and live within the boundaries of a participating school.

If your child turns five by August 31, 2025, they are not eligible for Future-Ready Kindergarten and should attend regular kindergarten this upcoming fall. Use this age calculator for help determining age eligibility.
