REGISTER NOW: Clarkstown UPK! 

Dear Clarkstown Families,

Is your child turning four on or before December 1, 2026? If so, now is the time to register for the 2026–2027 Clarkstown Central School District Universal Prekindergarten (UPK) program!

Clarkstown UPK is a tuition-free, five-hour daily school year program designed to give your child a joyful, confident start to their educational journey. Our program provides:

✨ A warm, nurturing environment 
✨ Engaging, play-based learning experiences
✨ Highly qualified, caring educators
✨ Early literacy, math, and social-emotional development skills
✨ A smooth transition into kindergarten

Families may choose the District’s Early Learning Center or one of our trusted community partner locations (space is limited at each site).

Though we are optimistic that all interested families can receive this benefit, the total funding available for the program will be determined in the New York State budget process. If registrations exceed available seats, a lottery will be needed, so register now.  You can schedule an appointment at ccsd.edu/upk. 

If you have questions about eligibility or the registration process, please contact the UPK Registration Office at ccsdupk@ccsd.edu or (845) 639-5607.

We look forward to welcoming your family to Clarkstown UPK!

Warmly,
The Clarkstown UPK Team
