Preschool for All Applications for the 2025-26 school year are OPEN!
Preschool for All is currently accepting new applications for the 2025-2026 school year. To apply for one of our PFA classrooms, please click on the Preschool For All Application button below.
MECP will also have two NEW classroom locations opening this fall. To apply for our classrooms located at Lent Elementary School or Clarendon Elementary School, please click on the MECP PEER Program Application button below.
MECP Peer Preschool Program is partnered with Preschool For All. There is no charge to attend MECP preschool.
This is an inclusive preschool for children ages 3-4 by September 1st, 2025 (for the ’25-26 school year). This application is only for our Peer models. Our classrooms are considered Early Childhood Special Education classrooms. 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.
Breakfast, lunch, and afternoon snack provided.
