We have received many inquiries regarding our AM/PM school day hours for the 25-26 School Year. Please click on this link to see District 203 Proposed School Day Hours for all 4 school levels.

Proposed School Day Hours

If you have a student who is currently enrolled and they will be returning to Ann Reid for the 25-26 School Year, they are guaranteed a spot next year. All returning families will participate in D203's Annual Update in the springtime. AM/PM preferences for SY 25-26 are not being considered at this time. Please see Innovative School Experience above.

If you have a sibling of a student who is currently enrolled and you have completed our spreadsheet, that child (the sibling) is guaranteed a spot for next school year. You must complete the spreadsheet and complete the enrollment process below for all new students (including siblings).

See additional information regarding the enrollment process below.

Enrollment for the 2025-2026 School Year opens January 15th for NEW preschool students. If you know someone who would like to enroll their child at Ann Reid next year, please direct them to the District 203 website at https://www.naperville203.org/Enrollment/Ann Reid.

Please complete an Intake Form. Once your address is verified, you will receive an email with the next steps in the enrollment process which will include a link to complete the Online Application, guidelines on what documentation is required, as well a link to make an appointment to complete the process in person at our Centralized Enrollment Office.

Once you have completed the enrollment process, you will be provided a link to enroll in our Community/Tuition based lottery.

The Community/Tuition based lottery will take place 3/1/25. Email communication will be sent directly to families who have completed the enrollment processes to verify a place in our community program.

Please note that Tuesday, February 25th is NOT an eLearning Day, as previously advertised by District 203. Students will be IN PERSON that day - EC-12th grades.

As of February 6, 2023, the Illinois State Board of Education (ISBE) made an amendment to Rule 23 Ill. Admin. Code 226.720(b), which significantly impacts the age eligibility criteria for special education early childhood classrooms. The amended rule now states that, "Early childhood classes and services shall serve only children from three through five years of age." All students who are 5 on September 1 of the school year are eligible for kindergarten and are no longer eligible to attend Ann Reid Early Childhood Center during that school year. No exceptions will be made to ensure compliance with this regulation. Students who are 6 on September 1 of the school year are enrolled in first grade. However, if a child has never attended a recognized kindergarten program and a parent requests enrollment in kindergarten in District 203, we allow it.

If a child attended any type of kindergarten program for all or part of the previous school year, then the student is enrolled in Grade 1. If a parent retention request is submitted for the child to attend kindergarten, the request would be reviewed by the receiving elementary principal (and his/her team).
