Spaces Available in our San Carlos Early Learning Preschool Program

Did you know? San Carlos School District offers many preschool options so families can choose the program that best fits their needs.

We have early learning/preschool classes on all of our elementary campuses — Arundel, Brittan Acres, Heather & White Oaks. It’s a wonderful way to get to know your incoming school community and start building friendships early!

State-funded preschool spots are available now at Arundel, FREE for eligible families. Your family may qualify for our free, state-funded preschool program, and we can help determine eligibility. For example, a family of four earning up to $127,338 per year may qualify.

At San Carlos Early Learning (@play_shapes_minds), children thrive in a warm, nurturing environment that fosters curiosity, social growth, and school readiness — helping them build the skills they need in Universal Transitional Kindergarten (UTK) and Kindergarten and beyond.

We Want to Hear from You!

We are deeply grateful for Measure N, the local parcel tax that voters generously approved to protect programs and retain excellent teachers. However, rising costs have made it challenging for Measure N to cover all the needs of our schools.

To continue providing the strong education our students deserve, SCSD is considering asking the community to extend Measure N with a modest increase — and your input matters.

Share your thoughts by November 21, 2025! Together, we can keep San Carlos schools strong. 💙
