Summary

Waukegan Public Schools has opened a brief survey asking families whether to expand full-day prekindergarten; the deadline to respond is Jan. 27.

Nicholas Alatsakis, director of communications for Waukegan Public Schools, said the district has launched a brief survey seeking family input on a possible full-day prekindergarten program.

The survey, Alatsakis said, is intended to help the district “guide our planning and ensure that we provide high quality, accessible, early childhood education that supports the needs of our families.” The deadline to complete the survey is Jan. 27, and information and the link are posted on the district website.

District officials did not specify enrollment targets, proposed funding sources, or an implementation timeline in the announcement. Alatsakis framed the survey as a planning step to collect family preferences rather than as a formal commitment to launch a full-day program.

Families seeking more information were directed to the district website for the survey link and additional details.
