Pre-K Programs
Pre-Kindergarten (Pre-K) is a voluntary preschool program that serves children ages 5 and under.
Your child will experience curriculum with an emphasis on mindfulness, social-emotional development, and leadership skills. Our early education programs allow students to play, receive planned and spontaneous instruction, and grow in many aspects of development. These include social skills, emotional well-being, language and literacy skills, mathematics and science concepts.
According to a study published to Raise Your Hand Texas, children who attend a preschool program were 54% more likely to be ready for kindergarten.
All Pre-K and Head Start children must be 3 or 4 years old on or before September 1 of the year the child will be enrolled in.
