Core Knowledge Preschools
The schools listed on this page are either Friends of Core Knowledge Preschool or Official Core Knowledge Preschool Visitation Sites. Friends of Core Knowledge are schools that are implementing Core Knowledge at any level. To remain on this website and in our database, Friends must update their profiles annually. Click here to see our K–8 Official Schools list.
If your preschool uses the Core Knowledge Preschool Sequence and is not listed here, please fill out a Preschool Profile to tell us about your school. You may send the form via e-mail, fax, or mail. You preschool will be added to our database and posted on the website within a few weeks. Please update your profile yearly to stay on our list!
Official Core Knowledge Preschool Visitation Sites have made a serious commitment to Core Knowledge and have participated in a rigorous process to receive formal recognition by the Core Knowledge Foundation as schools fully implementing the Preschool Sequence. We have personally visited these schools and in the visit spend time in each classroom, meeting with all teachers, and visit with parents. In addition, these schools have submitted to the Foundation their year-long monthly plan, unit lesson plans, and assessment results. Official Preschool Visitation Sites are identified with the following symbols:
