Preschool FAQs

  • Families may speak directly with their teacher or contact Jennifer Bickel, jbickel@mccsc.edu, for information about Special Education and the evaluation process. MCCSC’s program staff work with the Special Education department to meet all student’s needs.

  • Preschoolers are eligible to attend any school with availability, regardless of their home school. Families utilizing Title 1 funds must attend their districted school.
