Welcome to Central Union School District’s
Preschool,
Central Union School District, in contract with Kings County
Office of Education, provides half-day preschool services to eligible
three and four year-old children. Two sessions, each with a 24-student
capacity, are held at Akers School, one session, 24-student capacity,
at Central School and one session, 16-student capacity, at Stratford
School.
Through funding from the State of California, Child Development
Division, preschool services are provided free of charge based
upon priority and eligibility requirements set by the State
of California.
For families interested in preschool, the first step is to print
and complete the "Preschool Interest Sheet" located on
the left side of this page. Once that is completed, return the sheet
and documentation of current month income by:
Fax: 559 924-1153

This information may also be taken to any school site and it will
be forwarded to the District Office.
If this information cannot be printed and returned, the information
may be taken over the telephone. The telephone number is 559 925-2615.
As vacancies occur, families will be contacted from information
submitted on the interest sheet. If called, parents will be asked
to provide further documentation.
Central Union School District does not discriminate on the
basis of sex, sexual orientation, gender, ethnic group identification,
race ancestry, national origin, religion, color, or mental or physical
disability in determining which children are served. We welcome the
enrollment of children with disabilities and understand the requirement
of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) to make reasonable accommodations
for such children and implement those accommodations.
“The pre-kindergarten years are a time
when children's brains are rapidly developing. Pre-kindergarten
is a time for children to learn about self-control, curiosity,
cooperation, paying attention, and other skills that will prepare
them for their K-12 education”.
