MVSD Early Childhood Programs

Preschool Application Information:

The Missisquoi Valley School District Early Childhood Program will begin accepting applications for the 2024/2025 school year in our school-based classrooms  (Franklin, Highgate and Swanton) starting at 8:00am on March 1st, 2024.  Submit this application between March 1st, 2024 and March 31st, 2024 to indicate your interest in school-based preschool programs.  If there are more applications than spots, a lottery will determine placement in the program or on the waiting list.  Families will be notified by April 15th, 2024 about the results of the application.  **If your child currently attends preschool in a school-based classroom in Franklin, Highgate or Swanton you do not need to reapply for next year. **




Please note: Any requests for programming out of your town of residence will be automatically waitlisted until August 1, 2024. (For example: You reside in Swanton but request Highgate placement)






Alternatively, if you are interested in applying for preschool through the Act 166 program please visit the Act 166 tab on our website for more information. 

The Missisquoi Valley School District (MVSD) continues to build on our commitment to educate every child in a developmentally appropriate and holistic way. To expand on this commitment over the last 12 months, MVSD convened a district-wide team of educators from all member schools to create a Pre-Kindergarten through Grade 12 framework that addresses the social and emotional learning skills that every child, adolescent, and adult should obtain during their time at MVSD.
