Elk City Public Schools offers a full-day Pre-Kindergarten program at Elk City Elementary. Our Pre-Kindergarten program provides a positive, engaging, safe and caring learning environment for our littlest Elks. Activities and curriculum foster exploration and discovery through play time and centers. The daily schedule is structured to strengthen pre-skills, which ultimately help children learn to read, write, build math and science skills, and become successful students.
Learners Today. Leaders Tomorrow.

Our Pre-Kindergarten program is not an Oklahoma State Department of Education requirement, so there are a limited number of available spots.
Therefore,
- attendance requirements will be enforced; excessive absences can result in the removal of the student from the Pre-Kindergarten program.
- consistent behavior issues will not be tolerated; behaviors including, but not limited to, violence, disruptive behaviors, and defiance oftentimes indicate a child is not ready for Pre-K and could result in the removal of the student from the Pre-Kindergarten program.
Proof of Residency:
A Proof of Residency must be in the parent/guardian's name and can be any of the following:
- Rental/Lease Agreement
- Mortgage Statement (dated within the past 60 days)
- Notarized Letter of Residence (used if you don't have a lease or live with friends/relatives) from the homeowner - Include names of all persons living in the household and provide a utility bill in the homeowners name.
- Utility Bill - electric, water, gas (dated within the past 60 days - cut-off/disconnection notices, bank statements, credit card bills, and unopened envelopes are not acceptable)
