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.
