Pre-K Counts is a pre-kindergarten program dedicated to
making high quality early childhood education available to
York City families. Our program's goal is to prepare
children in reading and math and also for paying attention,
following directions and getting along with others. We will
provide services to 4 year olds in the district so that they
can enter school ready to learn and succeed in school and in
life.
Mission
To provide high quality
pre-kindergarten experience to York City families by
building a quality early education system so the children
have the best educational experience possible from the early
years through graduation.
Services

What is
being said about Pre-K Counts? |
|
"I love the professional atmosphere
of the school setting with the age appropriate curriculum we are
using. The children have never experienced many of the
activities we have introduced to them. Their retention of what
we have taught them is amazing." - Pre-K Counts Teacher
"Since my son has been in this
classroom he has been using more words in his vocabulary. He is
also interacting more appropriately with children in the
neighborhood." - Parent of a Pre-K Counts Student at Goode
