Our Commitment

CCSU believes every child deserves access to high-quality early education in a welcoming and inclusive environment.

If developmental concerns arise for any child residing in a CCSU member town — even if the child is not currently enrolled in a CCSU preschool classroom — families may contact CCSU at any time to inquire about evaluation services and available supports.

Questions?

For additional information about enrollment, programming, attendance expectations, and family resources, please review the CCSU Preschool Handbook.
