Applications for Universal Pre-Kindergarten are currently being accepted for the 2020-2021 school year. In order to participate in the UPK program children must reside in the Orchard Park Central School District attendance area, and be four years old by December 1st of the year they start the program. The Orchard Park Central School District is able to offer the Universal Pre-Kindergarten program through a grant provided by the New York State Education Department. This grant covers the cost of the program, but does not cover transportation. It is the responsibility of each family to transport their child to the Universal Pre-Kindergarten site. There are a designated number of Universal Pre-Kindergarten spots available. If more apply than there are openings, there will be a “lottery” to determine who will be able to attend. Children are randomly selected for the program. Selection is not based on academic or economic need. All children are equally eligible for participation. UPK applications are due by February 28, 2020. To register visit www.opschools.org/upk.
Members of the Orchard Park High School DECA club have been given an awesome opportunity to gain work experience without leaving the Orchard Park High School. DECA students can work at the Quaker Corner, the bookstore located in the Orchard Park High School Commons. Their time spent not only increases their learning and provides them valuable experience, but profits made from the store are used to offset the costs of DECA’s competitions. Each year DECA students compete in Regionals, States and if successful, some students may continue on to the International level. Click here to learn more!
