NCPK Home
North Carolina's Prekindergarten Program is designed to provide high-quality educational experiences to enhance school readiness for eligible four-year-old children. The NC Pre-K Program Requirements are built on the National Education Goals Panel's premise that to be successful academically in school, children need to be prepared in all five of the developmental domains that are critical to children's overall well-being and success in reading and math as they enter school:
-Approaches to play and learning
-Emotional and social development
-Health and Physical Development
-Language development and communication
-Cognitive development
