Wake Pre-K is a group of three public preschool programs free for eligible children turning four by August 31st. Wake Pre-K is designed to prepare children for kindergarten. Families can apply to be considered for all three programs using one single application. The application can be filled out online. The three programs have different eligibility requirements. Children are placed based on which program makes the most sense for the family. The three programs in Wake Pre-K are Wake County Smart Start’s NC Pre-K, Telamon Head Start’s Head Start, and Wake County Public School System’s Title I.
