Pre-K 3 Program Update

Dear LCCS Community,

An exciting change is coming to our PreK program in the 2025-2026 school year! 

Starting in the 2025/2026 School Year, the LCCS PreK will shift to a mixed-age program that will serve both 3—and 4-year-olds.  

Our program currently serves only 4-year-olds; we are thrilled to expand it to include younger students. 

LCCS’ 2025-2026 PreK Program will include six 3-year-olds. The total enrollment for LCCS PreK will remain 45 students: three classes of 15 children. 

 We will begin accepting lottery submissions for both 3 and 4-year-olds on October 1st, 2024. 

Through the lottery process, we will draw names for 39 four-year-olds and 6 three-year-olds: 

  • Children born between October 1st, 2021-September 30th, 2022, will be eligible to apply, and six names will be drawn.

  • Children born between October 1st, 2020 -September 30th, 2021, will be eligible to apply, and 39 names will be drawn.

The lottery opens on October 1st, 2024. The application can be found on our website: https://www.lccsnj.org/admissions. All applications must be submitted by January 17, 2025. The lottery drawing will occur on Friday, February 14th, via Zoom. 

We are excited about this new opportunity for our school community!
