MSD Boone Township adopts new preschool structure and fees for 2026–27
Summary
The board approved moving preschool from a five-day model back to a mix of three-day full-day, three-day half-day, and a Tuesday–Thursday threes-and-fours program for 2026–27, and authorized price increases to reflect rising salaries; employee discounts will remain in place.
The MSD Boone Township board voted to adopt a revised preschool schedule and fee structure for the 2026–27 school year.
Program design and rationale: Administrators recommended returning to the district’s earlier first-year model of offerings: a three-day full-day option, a three-day half-day option, and a Tuesday–Thursday program for three- and four-year-olds. The change follows enrollment patterns from prior years and is intended to maximize staff time with full-day students while managing afternoon registrant levels. Administrators cited rising salaries as a reason for recommended price increases.
Fee policy and discounts: The recommended package retains an employee discount and makes allowance for family-specific adjustments (for example, siblings or twins) handled on a case-by-case basis.
Implementation: The board approved the schedule and cost recommendations by voice vote and thanked Mr. Preikel and the preschool team for developing the proposal. Administrators said they will publish the 2026–27 schedule, notify families and work to fill waiting-list slots where possible.
What families should know: Exact fee amounts were included in the board packet; administrators said staff will work with families who need accommodations or discounts. Families should watch district communications for the published schedule and registration details.
