Welcome to the OUSD EARLY LEARNING

OUSD Universal Pre-K provides a safe, inclusive, and nurturing environment where all young learners grow through play-based, hands-on experiences. In strong partnership with families and our community, we foster curiosity, confidence, and the social, emotional, and academic skills needed for a successful transition to kindergarten and a lifetime of learning.

We offer three different Pre-K programs (Learning Link, Preschool, and Transitional Kindergarten/TK) that offer a variety of educational experiences for children ages 0-4 years old.
