PEP Program Preschool

What is PEP?

PEP is a special education preschool program. Students learn social emotional skills, early academics, communication, and motor skills in language-based classrooms following the MCPS preschool curriculum. Some classrooms include typical peers from the community to be models for play, behavior, and language. For more information contact: Annette Messier or Alanna Don.
