FCS Pre-Kindergarten Program

Fulton County Schools implements the state-funded Georgia’s Pre-Kindergarten program. We are proud to offer 94 lottery-funded Georgia Pre-Kindergarten classrooms in 51 elementary schools throughout the district.

We provide children with developmentally appropriate learning activities and experiences that prepare young children to be school ready for Kindergarten. For a child to be school ready, they are socially, emotionally, physically and cognitively prepared for success in Kindergarten.

Fulton County’s Pre-Kindergarten program helps children become independent, self-confident, enthusiastic learners. Participation in the program encourages children to develop good habits and daily routines. Research shows that children benefit when instruction is child centered. Child centered instruction allows teachers to facilitate learning in an environment that fosters children’s initiative, exploration, and collaborative interaction with other children and adults.

To ensure a smooth transition to Kindergarten, families are provided information and assistance in preparing for their child’s enrollment in Kindergarten.

Through Fulton's Prekindergarten Program, the child will:

  • Develop listening, speaking, reading, and writing skills.
  • Develop mathematics skills by recognizing and using numerical concepts, understanding patterns and relationships, and problem-solving.
  • Develop science skills by exploring, manipulating, and experimenting with objects in the physical environment.
  • Develop the ability to move in ways that demonstrate control, balance and coordination.
  • Develop the ability to participate and function in a social environment.
