Caldwell County Schools Preschool Program is not a traditional preschool or daycare. As an integrated preschool, our goal is to serve the needs of all students in an inclusive setting. The blended approach provides a tremendous benefit for children to develop strong language, play, and social skills. This design provides a wonderful opportunity for all children to participate and experience growth.
Caldwell County's 5 star rated preschool classrooms are staffed by a certified birth-kindergarten teacher and highly qualified teacher assistants. The Creative Curriculum for Preschool incorporates areas of learning in literacy, math, technology, social-emotional development, and the arts every school day.
The Preschool Program is currently located at the following elementary schools:
- Baton Elementary
- Collettsville School
- Davenport A+ School

- Gamewell Elementary
- Granite Falls Elementary

- Hudson Elementary
