The Cedar Falls Schools Preschool Program is in its 15th year. This program is funded by the Statewide-Voluntary Preschool Grant and Head Start dollars. Children that live within the Cedar Falls School's boundaries, and that will be age 4 by September 15 of that school year are eligible to participate in the program. Children who are age 5 on or before September 15 will not be eligible for this program. For the 2026-2027 school year, classrooms are located at Aldrich, Cedar Heights, Hansen, Lincoln, North Cedar, Orchard Hill and Southdale Elementary. Our program integrates students from Grant, Head Start, and students with special needs programs. The tuition is free to all that participate. The district follows a "first come, first served" policy.
