Educational studies indicate that the earlier a child can participate in a structured learning opportunity the better the chances of success. Providing learning opportunities for our community’s younger children is a priority for LPS. Preschool is available for children who will be three years old by October 1, 2023. Renovation construction on LPS’s state-of-the-art preschool, The Village Preschool for Early Childhood Education, will be completed in the fall of 2023. Renovations include amazing indoor and outdoor play and learning spaces made possible by the community’s passage of a $298M bond in 2018 as well as LPS’s partnership with the LPS Foundation and grants they were able to secure for $660,000 in additional funding. It’s going to be an amazing space for a wonderful program for our youngest learners, and we’d love to include your preschooler! Read more about our preschool offerings and learn how to get registered.
