Thank you for choosing Little Spartans Preschool! We are excited to meet you, and we look forward to our school year together! On this webpage, you will find some important information about your child's preschool classroom.

Welcome Letter Aug 2024 / Carta de bienvenida agosto 2024
Family Connections is a time for you and your preschooler to visit the classroom and meet the staff. A sign-up link will be emailed in mid to late August. If you aren't sure who the teacher is, or need help signing up, call 651-306-7503.

Register for Bus Transportation

Your 4 year old may be eligible to ride the bus IF pick-up and drop-off are within their school's attendance boundaries. Complete a 4-year-old bus registration and drop it off at the IGH Early Learning Center, or take a picture and email it to IGHpreschool@isd199.org.

Bus Registration for 4-year-old preschool ONLY

Children who ride the bus to school in the early morning, and/or who leave at 2:30 PM, will ride the same bus as K-5 students. Preschool students are asked to sit in the front of the bus. (Siblings can sit with them.)

A parent or other parent-approved sibling or adult, must be at the bus stop with the preschool child. At school, a staff member will pick up the student from the bus and walk them to class, then walk them from class to the bus.

Bus changes or updates will not be processed until week 3 of school. Mid-year changes can take up to 2 weeks.

Questions or changes? Call 651-306-7503.

Bus Tracking App

If your child will be riding the bus, you can download the My Stop bus app to follow the location of your child's bus in real time and get late bus alerts.
