We are excited that you are interested in your child's participation in the Columbia Local Schools Little Raiders Preschool.
We are looking forward to integrating preschool children with disabilities (Peer Models) into the classroom in order to provide role models in all areas of development for all of our students.
Student selection will be based on a combination of factors: current students/families, order of application completed, child's age, screening and openings in our classrooms.
Morning and afternoon preference CANNOT be guaranteed.
Families will be notified no later than Thursday, April 17, 2025 of acceptance, waitlist (if needed), and next steps.
Requirements for students to attend our preschool program as peer models are:
- Must be a resident of the Columbia Local School District.
- Must be at least three (3) years of age prior to August 1, 2025 and less than six (6) years of age by August 1, 2025.
- Strong communication and social skills are preferred.
- Must be completely toilet trained by August 1, 2025.
- Ability to separate from parents during preschool screening.
*If you have multiple children applying for the program, please complete one form for each child.
