School officials at Pea Ridge schools said they are excited for the opportunity to begin a pre-kindergarten program next school year.
A grant through the Endeavor Foundation will provide funding for 20 children to attend at no cost for three years. Children who attend through the grant must meet Arkansas Better Chance (ABC) criteria to qualify for these spots.
There are also 20 tuition based spots which require a weekly fee to attend and have no restrictions in who can apply for them. The weekly fee will be $110. The application deadline for the tuition spots is May 6, 2015.
Applications are available online at prs.k12.ar.us or at any of the school offices. Applications need to be dropped off at the Professional Development Center, located behind the Intermediate Cafeteria, 1536 N. Davis St. This is also where the pre-k center will be located.
