Voluntary PreK (VPK) is an income-based program and first priority will go to those families that qualify. Completing the Henderson County PreK application packet does not necessarily guarantee enrollment in the PreK program. Non-income eligible students will NOT be notified until after school has started. Non-income eligible students are placed on a waiting list once all paperwork is complete. Once all qualifying students are placed, non-income eligible students will receive notice informing them of their status after the beginning of school, per the VPK grant guidelines.

Thank you, teachers, for all you do for the students of Henderson County. First, as a student, then as a parent and educator, and now as the district director, I have seen firsthand Henderson County’s teachers' incredible impact on our students daily. It is an honor to recognize you during Teacher Appreciation Week. This week we celebrate you and thank God for you!
