Preschool programs in Morongo Unified seeking students
Enrollment is now being accepted for state-funded preschool
programs at three sites in Morongo Unified operated by the San Bernardino
County Superintendent of Schools (SBCSS) for low-income families who cannot
afford to send their children to preschool.
The preschools offer comprehensive child development programs and hold
classes three hours per weekday. To get on an eligibility list, contact
KidsNCare's Centralized Eligibility List at (800) 722-1091.
Preschool programs will be starting on Aug. 24 at Morongo Valley
Elementary, Yucca Valley Elementary and Palm Vista Elementary. In addition,
there will be a new preschool program opening soon in the afternoon at
Landers Elementary.
Eligibility for the programs is based on income that will be
determined on a sliding scale. A family of three with a monthly gross income
of $3,722 or less would meet the eligibility requirements, as would a family
of six with a gross income of $5,459. Those enrolling their children do not
have to be employed.
There are morning and afternoon classes with lunch provided for both
sessions. Students need to be 4 years old by Dec. 2 of the school year to
receive first priority. Students need to be 3 years old by Dec. 2 of the
school year to receive second priority. Parents with children attending
preschool will be encouraged to volunteer in the classroom. For more
information, contact the County Schools' State Preschool program at (909)
