Early Childhood Education

We are proud of our excellent Preschool Program and we encourage families to enroll their children. The Douglas County Preschool Program is an inclusive program for both typically developing students and students identified with special needs. Length of class is a 2 hour 45 minute session, morning or afternoon sessions are available. Currently there are three Preschool Classrooms located at Legacy Point Elementary.

Students who are age 3 on or before October 1st, 2020 are eligible to register and begin school at the start of the school year in August. Students who turn 3 after October 1, 2020 are eligible to register and begin school on their 3rd birthday. To align with district practice, students who are 5 years of age on or before October 1, 2020 are eligible for kindergarten and not eligible for preschool for the 2020-2021 school year.

NOTICE OF DESTRUCTION OF SPECIAL EDUCATION RECORDS

Special Education records which have been collected by Douglas County School District related to the identification, evaluation, educational placement, or the provision of special education in the district, must be maintained under state and federal laws for the period of five (5) years after special education services have ended for the student. Special education services end when the student is no longer eligible for services, graduates, or completes his/her educational program at age 21, or moves from the district. This notification is to inform parents/guardians and former students of Douglas County School District's intent to destroy the special education records of students who exited special education services as of June 30, 2016. These records will be destroyed in accordance with state law unless the parent/guardian or eligible (adult) student notifies the school district otherwise. After five years, the records are no longer useful to the district, but may be useful to the parent/guardian or former student in applying for social security benefits, rehabilitation services, college entrance, etc. The parent/guardian or eligible (adult) student may request a copy of the records by requesting the records at this link ( Douglas County School District Transcripts and Records Requests ).
