We are excited to invite you to join the Round Lake Area Schools District #116 Birth to Five Programs! Registration in these free programs will enroll your newborn in the district from birth.

Our district is fortunate to have two programs that support parents in their most important role - that of being their child's first and most important teacher.

  • Birth to 3 Programs (Prenatal - 3)
  • Mountaintop Project (Birth to 5)

The focus of both programs is to empower parents and ensure your child will be preschool and/or kindergarten ready. Through district and community resources, and support from our bilingual child development liaisons, you will be provided with the necessary tools to be successful as your child's first teacher.

This is a voluntary program that provides the following FREE services to families living within Round Lake Community Unit District #116 boundaries.
