If you're interested in enrolling your child in a 4K program at a Greenville County school, time is running out. 

4K pre-registration ends Friday in Greenville County, and to be considered, children must turn 4 years old on or before Sept 1. Parents can pre-register their child at any district elementary school or child development center offering a 4K program. 

In the general Taylors area, schools offering 4K programs this year are:

Children selected for 4K programs must demonstrate academic/developmental needs and/or risk factors such as low family income and low parent education level. Screened children will be ranked district-wide and those most at-risk for school success will receive initial assignments. Notification of 4K acceptance will be mailed to parents in late March 2013.
