A child care facility must apply to be considered as a Wake County Pre-K program site. To be eligible a center must:

• Be willing to accept children receiving subsidy for their care;
• Use Creative Curriculum in the Pre-Kindergarten classroom;
• Limit classes to a maximum of 18 children, with a teacher to students ratio of 1 to 9; and
• Meet all of the program guidelines mandated by the NC Pre-Kindergarten Program.

WCSS uses the NC Department of Health and Human Services Division of Child Development and Early Education (DCDEE) NC Pre-K Standardized Site Selection Process to choose and approve sites for participation in the NC Pre-K Program.
