NC Pre-K is a state-funded, FREE, high quality early care and education program that aims to enhance children’s school readiness. The program is offered for 6 ½ hours a day for 10-months; programs are located in public schools, private child care programs, and Head Start. Limited options for wrap-around care are available.
We offer family-focused programs that empower parents, promote involvement, and support high quality early education for children of parents and caregivers who are working or attending school.
We offer many forms of support and education to the early childhood community, including brief workshops, training series, intensive technical assistance, and help working towards a degree.
There are only 2,000 days between the time a baby is born and when that child shows up for the first day of kindergarten.
Those days really matter.
