Welcome to UPK

2026-2027 UPK Placement Reminders 

• Please be sure to complete your child's UPK registration with the District Registrar at 845.298.5000 x40132  or x40177 by July 1, 2026, to ensure that your child's placement is secured.
  • If you have not yet completed your child's UPK registration, we encourage you to contact the District Registrar as soon as possible to schedule your appointment. We look forward to welcoming your child to our UPK program! 
  • If you have already registered your child for Preschool Special Education Services, please note that this is a separate process from UPK registration. You will still need to schedule and complete a UPK registration appointment with the District Registrar.

Because our UPK program partners with a variety of community-based organizations, UPK school year calendars and offerings may vary by location, including before- and after-care options. Reaching out directly to your assigned site is the best way to receive the most accurate and up-to-date information.

We encourage you to contact your assigned UPK site to learn more about the programs, services, schedules, and family support opportunities available to your child.
