Public School Employees Child Development Program - This preschool is meant mainly for the children of Howard County Public School teachers and staff. Although Howard County Public Schools employees' kids are given preference anyone can apply to send their kids here. The caveat is that Howard County School's academic schedule is followed -- so that means, for example, no classes over the summer. On the other hand, if you want to send your kids to preschool but not over the summer, this might be perfect for you as you'll find that many schools may not hold your place if you withdraw your child over the summer months. There are six locations in Howard County, all but one of them is inside of a high school, the other is at the Cedar Lane School in Fulton.
