Universal Pre-Kindergarten Registration for the 2026-2027 school year can begin anytime from January through March. We advise families to visit the school district website during that time for the most up-to-date information regarding the lottery. All information will come from the district first. Registration for the lottery is done through the school district. The district determines in which elementary schools the program will take place. Students are placed based on their lottery number. Once the lottery has taken place, SCOPE will reach out to confirm placement provided to us by the school district. We are pleased to offer Pre-Kindergarten programs (Tuition based, 2 and/or 3-year-old) that meet NYS curriculum standards. Our Pre-Kindergarten classes are taught by qualified instructors and are staffed (according to need) with teaching assistants. All SCOPE UPK/Pre-K programs follow the school district calendar.
