Dear Stanhope Community,
It is with great excitement that I announce that preschool enrollment is now open for the 2025/26 school year! However, the best news is that our full-day program is FREE for eligible students, which include children who reside in the Borough of Stanhope and turn three years old by October 1 of the school year in which they are enrolling. Our preschool curriculum is delivered by NJDOE-certified teachers, with instruction tailored to each child’s unique developmental needs.
For the upcoming school year, the Stanhope School District will be partnering with First Impressions Preschool to offer up to 50 seats for general education preschool students. Two inclusive classrooms will be located at the Valley Road School, while two additional classrooms will be located at First Impressions Preschool at 19 Linden Avenue in Stanhope. As an added benefit, First Impressions will be able to offer before and after school care for a fee.
Interested families can register students online at www.stanhopeschools.org/preschool. As it becomes available, additional information will be shared with registered families through email. Please contact us at (973) 347-0008 if you have any questions.
We look forward to welcoming your child to our preschool program!
Respectfully,
Steve Hagemann
Stanhope School District
Superintendent
