Chippewa Valley Schools hosts four GSRP Preschool Programs each school year.  We have a total of 64 available seats district wide.  

Specifics about our program include: 

• Your child must turn 4 years of age by September 1, 2025, to participate.  
• First and foremost, this program is based on financial need per the State of Michigan.  All will be considered, but we are obligated to serve those most in need first and foremost.
• Our program will meet 4 full days a week - Monday through Thursday with no classes on Fridays.
• We do not offer before/after school childcare.  
• Our programs do not offer transportation - parents must provide or arrange for transportation to and from classes.
• Locations are not finalized for the fall and parents are not able to 'select' their location.  Classes are built using the guidelines established by the State of Michigan.
