Welcome to Preschool!

Welcome to Preschool!

Hopkins County Schools provides a state-funded preschool program at elementary schools throughout the district.  The preschool program is for children four years old whose family income meets the federal "at-risk" criteria or for children three or four years old that have an educational disability or developmental delays. 

"At-Risk" criteria means your household income is at 160% of the federal poverty guidelines. Children must be 4 years old by August 1st and have a household income at 160% of federal poverty to be considered for the at-risk eligibility criteria.

All children will receive a developmental screening to determine if there is a potential developmental delay in any area.  If a potential delay is identified, children will receive interventions for the areas of concern.

All 3- and 4-year-old children are not eligible for the state-funded preschool program based upon federal and state guidelines.

To determine if your child is eligible for the preschool program, you may contact Hopkins County Schools Department of Early Childhood at 270-825-6100 ext. 22244.

All pre-registrations will be completed online for the 2024-2025 school year.  No registrations by phone will be accepted.  Any child who will be 3 years old by August 1, 2024, or who is 4 years old may complete the online pre-registration to determine eligibility for preschool or the need for a developmental screening.
