Important Information:
  • SPP requires proof of your child’s birthdate, proof of address, and proof of income upon enrollment to determine eligibility and if your family will or will not owe tuition.
  • SPP generally follows the Seattle Public Schools calendar, including breaks and closures, and runs for 180 days from September to June. You may find the school calendar by visiting the Seattle Public Schools website.
  • Summer programming is typically offered at this location; please inquire with the preschool directly for summer enrollment information.  
  • SPP children typically attend preschool at least 6 hours per day, 5 days per week. Flexible schedules, such as part-day or 3 days per week, are not an option.
  • SPP does not offer transportation. It is the parent/guardian’s responsibility to bring the child to school and to pick up on time.
