Welcome to SCPS Preschool Programs

Our Mission - Educating, Engaging, and Empowering Children and Families

Spotsylvania County Public Schools Preschool Programs goal is to provide high-quality preschool education for qualifying children of Spotsylvania County. Preschool Programs are located in various elementary schools within the county.  Our preschool programs include Head Start and Virginia Preschool Initiative (VPI).

Head Start and Virginia Preschool Initiative (VPI) provides preschool for the children of Spotsylvania County who will be age four on or before September 30th for the school year prior to kindergarten. Both programs are based on income and other child and family factors. 

Early Childhood Special Education (ECSE) provides preschool for children of Spotsylvania County ages two (by September 30) through 5 (and not age-eligible for kindergarten)  who are diagnosed with special needs. ECSE works in collaboration with Head Start and VPI to provide inclusion opportunities for preschool children conducive to locations of such programs.
