Welcome to the Pre-K Application Resource Center
If you are still deciding which Pre-K to attend, we can help. There are approximately 200 locations to choose from, so we can find the perfect fit for you. For many of our families, choosing a location that is close to home is critical. We have provided two lists of our options, each broken out by zip code, to help you.
Why two lists? Because they fall into two categories (“School-Based” and “Community-Based”). Both comply with our District standards – any location you choose from either list has met with our seal of approval.
Learn more and apply today.
