Enroll in SNACS Preschool Program!

Free Preschool Grant Enrollment

SNACS received the Pre-K grant to provide tuition-free, high-quality early childhood education services for qualifying families who want to enroll at SNACS. The SNACS Pre-K grant promotes social, emotional, and academic development for our youngest students, with support from their families. Due to the high demand for these programs, we require all our available spaces to be filled with regularly attending, active participants.

All families enrolled in the Pre-K program are required to attend:

  • Family Orientation
  • Parent and Teacher Conferences 3 times per year
  • Read with your child and report reading time

The Pre-K grant program requires family engagement activities in program workshops and family events. Families are expected to attend at least four events per year. Events include:

  • Program Workshops
  • NV Prek Standards
  • Kindergarten Transition
  • Conscious Discipline

Family Engagement Events

  • Family literacy nights
  • Count on books math night
  • Science exploration night
  • Author’s celebration and debut
  • Kindergarten connections

Celebrations and Traditions

  • Fall festival
  • Spring Fling
  • Expeditionary Learning Days
  • Family field trips

Eligibility Criteria

  • The child must meet the age requirement.
  • The child is current with immunizations.
  • Family meets income qualifying factor.
  • Family commits to family engagement requirements.

The Pre-K grant program serves preschool-age students for children ages 4 by August 1st. The Pre-K Grant Program is free for qualified families based on two identified state priorities. Priority 1 is for families with income-qualifying circumstances. Priority 2 is for families with income-qualifying circumstances and/or have a preschool-age child with identified special needs and/or a preschool-age child with identified behavioral challenges.

The preschool grant program is offered Monday through Thursday from 8:00 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. and follows the school calendar for breaks, holidays, parent-teacher conferences, celebrations, etc. Enrollment, lottery, and waiting lists for the Pre-K grant follow the same procedures as enrollment in the charter school.
