At what age, and using what criteria, are children eligible for the preschool program?
A. Preschool programs are available to 4-year-old children who are “at risk,” meaning they are eligible for the federal School Lunch Program. Preschool also is available for 3- and 4-year-old children with disabilities. Enrollment of a child in the preschool program is at the discretion of the parent or legal guardian. For more information about the preschool offerings in your district, or to see if your child is eligible, it is best to contact your local school district directly.
