Do public schools have Pre-K?

Yes, some public schools offer Pre-K programs. These programs are often free for qualifying families, though availability depends on your school district. Age requirements and program length vary by state, so it’s best to check with your local district.

At what age should I enroll my child in Pre-K?

The starting age for Pre-Kindergarten varies across states, but it's usually at four years of age. Remember, the application process often begins a few months prior to the child reaching the eligible age, so it's important to plan ahead.

Pre-K is an early learning program designed for children before they enter kindergarten. It emphasizes foundational learning, social skills, and early literacy and numeracy development.
