There are only two full day pre-k3 programs in Chicago, Drummond and Suder. Getting offered a spot is probably the hardest lottery in the city. Offers have already been made for the coming school year. Pk3 programs in most schools are half day or about two and a half hours. I would contact your neighborhood schools or schools close to your future home to get a sense of what they offer. My impression has been that with the emphasis on all day pk4 there are fewer half day pk3 programs. I would also check out Kiddy college in the parks district if you are just looking for a couple hours. That schedule will post late summer. Hope that helps!

This is very helpful, thank you. My son has an IEP and has grown so much in full time school. I do not know if that would be taken into consideration, but I will look into it. Thanks for the feedback.
