Midland ISD has officially launched its pre-K interest survey for the upcoming 2027-28 school year. Families are encouraged to complete the online form to help the district manage planning and capacity for the program.
Why it matters
Participating in high-quality early childhood education is vital for helping children develop the necessary academic and social skills for future success. Early assessment of interest helps the district prepare adequate resources for incoming students.
During the 2025-26 school year, 67% of students who attended district pre-K met kindergarten readiness benchmarks, compared to 38% of those who did not attend. This interest survey is for planning purposes and does not guarantee enrollment.
