Our Insights

This community-based organization participates in the New York City 3-K and/or Pre-K for All program, which offers free education to 3- and 4-year-olds. It may be housed in a private child care center, private or religious nursery school, Head Start program or subsidized child care center.

Why might this program be a good fit for you? If you need full-day care, qualify for Head Start, or already have your infant/toddler enrolled here, you might want to consider this type of program. If getting a spot in a district school is a higher priority, you might consider looking at an elementary school with a pre-k program.

Wondering What to Look For in your school selection process? Check our suggestions for pre-k/3-k here.

If you are a parent or staff member of this program, please tell us more about it in the Comments Section below.
