Lafayette Parish School System Pre-K Program
LAFAYETTE PARISH SCHOOL SYSTEM PRE-K PROGRAM: LPSS Pre-K contains classrooms within the school district that are funded by several grants as well as some local funds. This program, following the school system calendar, provides daily education to 4-year-olds in Lafayette Parish. The grants first service children eligible within their home zone if available. Due to limited seats in home zones, Truman Early Childhood Education Center and Katharine Drexel Early Childhood Education Center accommodates overflow students from most zones.

Tuition-Based Enrollment: Families who do not meet the income requirements can still participate by paying tuition.
