We are now accepting applications for the 2021-2022 program year!
What Pre-K Programs are Available?
Kalamazoo County PRE-K is made up of the following programs:
- Head Start – Federally-funded education for eligible 3- and 4-year-olds
- Kalamazoo County Ready 4s – Private and public early childhood providers for 3- and 4-year-olds
- Great Start Readiness Program – State-funded PRE-K programs for eligible 4-year-olds
We hope to continue programming as close to normal as we can with enhanced safety protocols. However, information continues to unfold, and circumstances continue to change. If the plan to reopen with increased safety procedures is unable to happen, we will communicate an alternative plan as soon as possible.
Check out our Return to Learn Plan for details!
