Shiawassee County has two different free preschool programs for children three and/or four years of age. In order for children to attend these programs the child and family must meet the eligibility requirements.
GREAT START READINESS PROGRAMS (GSRP) formerly known as Michigan School Readiness Program provides preschool to children who are 4-years old by Dec 1 that meet eligibility criteria.
HEAD START provides preschool to children who are 3 before Dec 1 of current school year AND MUST NOT turn 5 prior to Dec 1 of current school year to be eligible.
Find out if your child is eligible for either of these programs. Contact a program near you.
