Board adopts revised pre‑K entrance policy setting Dec. 1 cutoff
Summary
The Mineola Board of Education voted to adopt revised Policy 7120 to set pre‑K entrance eligibility to Dec. 1 (date student turns four). The board waived a second formal reading and adopted the policy by voice vote.
At the April 16 meeting the Mineola Union Free School District Board of Education passed Resolution 88 to waive the second formal reading and adopt a revised Board Policy 7120, establishing December 1 as the eligibility date for pre‑K entrance (the date a student turns four).
The change was presented as a clarifying amendment to eligibility dates for pre‑K students. The motion was made, seconded and carried by voice vote. No board member requested additional amendments during the brief discussion.
The policy change will be posted per district practice and implemented for the next enrollment cycle. Administrators did not indicate any additional costs or programmatic changes tied directly to the eligibility date adjustment.
