Lunenburg County Public Schools provides a preschool program for at-risk four year olds.

Children are selected for this program on the basis of family need according to state guidelines.

Children must be four years of age on or before Sept. 30 of the enrollment year to meet age requirements. Priority is given to children with the greatest number of at-risk criteria impacting their environment.
