CCISD offers Pre-Kindergarten and Kindergarten Registration Information

Clear Creek ISD is gearing up to welcome new Pre-Kindergarten and Kindergarten students for the 2018-2019 school year.

Clear Creek ISD is proud to team with ReadyRosie to bring parents modeled moments designed to deliver valuable lessons into real life situations in an engaging way. Once registered, parents will receive a weekly playlist of videos that “train” the parent how to connect fun activities with serious learning opportunities. The videos and activities are targeted to children ages 0-5 years old to instill both foundational learning and social skills. CCISD Pre-K and Kindergarten teachers are also integrating ReadyRosie into the classroom setting and curriculum.
