Is Pre-K free in South Carolina?
- In South Carolina, free Pre-K, known as 4K, is available for children in the "most at-risk" category, including those from low-income families or eligible for services like Head Start and Medicaid. Children with developmental delays, IEPs, or those who are homeless or in foster care also qualify. Some districts serve all children who request services, while a few may charge fees for non-qualifying children, but "at-risk" children are always served for free.
