Year Before Kindergarten (YBK)
Full Day Preschool at Central

Monday-Friday
7:00 a.m. until 6:00 p.m.

YBK is a cohort of Kids Place Full Day Preschool classrooms for children heading to kindergarten the next fall. We’ll spend the year getting ready for kindergarten by sharpening our skills in the core areas of literacy, mathematics, science and social studies. We’ll focus on building friendships and becoming more independent. During the year, YBK students will visit a kindergarten classroom, tour all SLP elementary schools, and meet with special guests, including a school principal. Children need to be 4 years old by September 1 and toilet trained to join this class.

Children that are currently enrolled in Kids Place Preschool have the first option to move into a YBK classroom the Fall that they are 4 by September 1. Any remaining spots are filled by new enrollments.
