About Beauregard Parish Early Childhood

Beauregard  Parish Pre-Kindergarten contains classrooms within the school district that are funded by LA4, 8g, Education Excellence, and Special Education grants as well as local funds. This program provides daily education to 4 year olds in Beauregard Parish.   

EARLY CHILDHOOD SPECIAL EDUCATION:
An educational evaluation is offered for children ages 3 through 5 years not enrolled in Kindergarten who may have special needs. Children are serviced in homes, early learning centers and within the school system.  

EARLY CHILDHOOD COMMUNITY NETWORK:
As directed by Act 3, Beauregard Parish has worked together to create a unified system of high quality, publicly-funded options to families to ensure more children enter school kindergarten ready. This network is comprised of a local early childhood community network that includes every publicly Pre-Kindergarten and child care in the parish.  

BEAUREGARD PARISH LEAD AGENCY:
The state coordinates these community networks by designating a Lead Agency for each community to coordinate essential activities, specifically observations and enrollment. The Lead Agency also serves as fiscal agent.  

1. Conduct administrative functions for the community network
2. Coordinate CLASS observations assuring that accurate observations are conducted for all Infant, Toddler and Pre-K
     classrooms and feedback is provided to all programs
3. Coordinate the birth-to-age-five enrollment and the state funding application for the community network
