Free Pre-Kindergarten!

Help your 4-year-old prepare for school!

Pre-Kindergarten helps 4-year-olds prepare for school.* Most public schools have Pre-K classes, and your child could attend for free!

Pre-K helps children develop stronger reading, writing, math, English, listening and social skills.

Children who attend Pre-K are more likely to graduate from high school and succeed as adults!

To qualify for free Pre-K, your child must be at least 4 years old by September 1st of the school year and meet ANY of the following criteria:

• Child is from a low income household
• Child is unable to speak English well
• Child is homeless or has been in foster care
• Child’s parent is a member of the U.S. armed forces

Children with no documentation of U.S. citizenship are accepted!

Contact your school district to ask questions or enroll your child. Call 211 or 311 if you don’t know who to call.

*Some school districts have programs for 3-year-olds, too! Ask your school.
