The pre-enrollment period for Kingswood's paid Pre-K program has closed. Information about the other WCPSS Pre-K programs is available on the WCPSS website.
Kingswood teachers are trained to provide an interdisciplinary approach by integrating science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) in all Common Core State Standards through project-based learning. Our outdoor learning centers combine STEM concepts with Montessori based activities where students enjoy learning opportunities year round.
This time-honored educational approach offers a nurturing and supportive learning environment that develops the whole child, including social, emotional, academic, and physical needs. The curriculum is delivered using the Montessori philosophy, methods, and materials. Student-led Project-Based Learning allows students to gain knowledge and skills by investigating and responding to a complex question or challenge. Parents of students who are interested in our programs are encouraged to contact our Magnet Coordinator, Michelle Gensler. mgensler@wcpss.net
Kingswood's PK is a tuition-based program. Tuition is $6,000 for the school year. Using the Montessori multi-age philosophy, pre-Kindergarten and Kindergarten students are together in the same primary classroom.
Pre-K Families seeking placement at Kingswood for the 2025-26 school year will need to submit a magnet school application during the Magnet Application Window, which is October 14, 2024 - January 23, 2025. In order to submit a magnet application, you must first pre-enroll your child for the 2025-2026 school year. Pre-enrollment begins with a specific online application found here: How to register. Once we receive your completed electronic enrollment application, we will contact you to complete the pre-enrollment in person here at the school. Once fully pre-enrolled, we will issue your child’s student ID number. You will use this student ID to complete and submit a 2025-26 magnet application. The magnet application and dates can be found here. Magnet application results will be posted on February 21, 2025. Please contact our Magnet Coordinator, Michelle Gensler (mgensler@wcpss.net), if you have any questions.
