2023-2024 PRESCHOOL REGISTRATION
NOW OPEN!

**TUITION COST – As of Fall 2023, there is no charge to attend MECP preschool.

Please Note: This classroom is considered an Early Childhood Special Education classroom. Peers are neighborhood children who are not experiencing a disability.  As such, a child who qualifies for special education services (those who have an IFSP) can only attend if their IFSP team (which includes the family) determines that the special education classroom is the least restrictive placement for the child to receive their special education services. If you have questions about your child’s placement, please reach out to your special education provider.
