Pre-K Eligibility

Children must be four years of age on or before August 15th of the current year.  Our priority is to enroll students identified as 'at-risk.'  The 'at-risk' factors are determined by the Tennessee Department of Education, and include such factors as family income, family structure, and unique family situations.  Applications may be obtained at individual schools.

A Day At-A-Glance in Pre-K

Each Pre-K class has 20 students and is staffed by a certified early childhood teacher and a paraprofessional.  The class is guided by a state approved curriculum, The Creative Curriculum for Preschool, to address the child's needs, interests, and learning styles.  The classrooms are highly organized into activity centers to maximize learning and meet individual instructional needs.

Schedules may vary in each Pre-K classroom a daily routine helps the children develop a sense of security and independence.  Teachers provide opportunities for students to learn, think, cooperate, problem solve, listen to stories, interact with music and movement, and play outdoors.  Schedules are structured to maximize the instructional time providing developmentally appropriate practices through individual, small group, and whole group learning.  

The Pre-K curriculum is geared towards developmentally appropriate instruction for all children.  The students are provided with a rich learning environment, which strengthens academic and social skills.  Early literacy, math and basic school readiness are built into all aspects of the Pre-K experience.  

The Pre-K year is a valuable time for students to learn how to express themselves, make meaningful decisions, and get along with others.  Excellent attendance is expected for our preschool experience to benefit children's social and cognitive development and prepare our youngest learners for a successful school experience.
