Why PreK?

90% of human brain development happens before age 5. In other words, waiting until kindergarten to start teaching our kids is already too late. By registering your child in Midway ISD's Pre-K program, you give them the gift of a brighter future. As adults, they also end up earning higher incomes, on average, than similar students who do not register in Pre-K.

Studies show that kids who attend Pre-K are:

• 3.5x more likely to be ready for kindergarten
• More likely to succeed in school
• More likely to go to college
• Less likely to drop out
• Less likely to become a teen parent
• Less likely to be arrested for a violent crime
