Income Limits
We encourage all families to apply for Pre-K regardless of income.
Proof of income must be provided at the time the application is completed from every adult in the household (18 or older) and from any adult who contributes to the well-being of the child. The table in the following link provides the MAXIMUM amount of GROSS income that can be earned monthly in the household for the 2024-2025 school year. These limits are based on the federal poverty level and are non-negotiable.
NOTE: Only base pay is considered when determining eligibility. Any bonuses, overtime salaries, living expenses, tips, etc. are not figured in the total household income.
You must submit 2 current consecutive check stubs (dated on or before the application submission date and no longer than 2 months earlier than the submission date) as proof of income. If you do not receive payroll checks, you must submit the appropriate document (populated from the application based on your situation) that will serve as your proof of income.
*Please make sure that if your child receives SNAP, Medicaid, or Social Security benefits, you have selected the appropriate benefit and have uploaded the official document when applying online.
