PreK ClassroomsThe Ridgefield Park CO-OP Preschool has partnered with the Ridgefield Park School District to provide the first Universal Preschool in the district. The Universal Preschool is being funded by a Preschool Expansion Aid (PEA) Grant that was awarded to the district by the State of New Jersey. The Village of Ridgefield Park was the only school district in Bergen County to be awarded the grant to cover educational expenses for each student (at $15,500) for a total award of $235,00 from the NJDOE this year! Each year the Ridgefield Park School District will be increasing the number of preschool classes that will be available and funded by the NJDOE up to about $3,000,000 annually. Information for a lottery and sign up for next year's classes will be announced in the Spring. For more information, see the October edition of our Board of Education Newsletter.
