• Pre-K Scholars

    UCPS is committed to offering outstanding early education experiences. With four distinct Pre-K programs, we cater to the diverse needs of every child. Whether your child benefits from specialized support or flourishes in inclusive environments, there is a program for them. It is important to note that UCPS does not have a general enrollment process for preschool programs. Each Pre-K option offered by UCPS has specific eligibility requirements. Families are encouraged to review the guidelines for their preferred program to determine eligibility and next steps.
