Preschool Education Program (PEP)

PEP offers pre-K classes and services for children with disabilities ages 3–5. PEP serves children with delays in multiple developmental domains that impact the child’s ability to learn. The continuum of services includes an itinerant model for children in community-based child care settings and preschools, an inclusive model in selected MCPS general education pre-K classes, and self-contained classes. Classes are provided for children who need a comprehensive approach to their learning.
