The Little Brooklyn Pre-K Center at 4222 4th Avenue

This is a Pre-K Center, which only serves 3- and 4-year-olds. Pre-K Centers were set up by the Department of Education as a way to expand the number of pre-K seats in areas with little room in regular public schools. Most only offer pre-K for 4-year-olds, but some also offer 3-K for 3-year-olds. Some Pre-K Centers are co-located in a building with another school. Others operate in their own space such as a renovated storefront or closed parochial school.

Why might this program be a good fit for you? At Pre-K Centers like this one, the entire staff works with this age group. You should consider this program if you want your child to attend a school that only serves young children. If getting a spot in a school that is in your district is a higher priority, you might want to look at a local elementary school with a pre-K program.
