Durham Public Schools also serves at-risk four-year-old children through our Title I pre-kindergarten program. Eligibility for this program is determined through Durham's Universal Pre-K Application and screening process conducted in the winter and early spring. Children who live in Durham County and will be four years old on or before August 31 of the program year are invited to apply. The application and screening process is conducted in conjunction with Durham’s Partnership for Children and Child Care Services Association. Some programs require income information. Families interested in applying for these programs can find more information here or call 1-833-PREK-EDU (1-833-773-5338). Available spots are limited and placement is based on eligibility requirements for each program.
