Half-Day Kindergarten in Montgomery County?

[Anonymous]

Hi Everyone - does anyone know of a half-day accredited kindergarten program (e.g., from 9 am to 12 pm) in Montgomery County (either public or private)? We are in North Bethesda/South Rockville area. Thanks in advance!!

There is no public half-day kindergarten in MCPS. You'll have to go private. I don't have any suggestions for that, sorry.

Perhaps Gaithersburg Presbyterian preschool? I think they have a half day accredited k class.

Also nearby in Gaithersburg is Epworth Methodist. Its just north of Rockville near intersection of 355 and Shady Grove Rd.

We just finished K and no issues at all with the full day schedule. My child is on the older side though (fall b-day).

Georetown Hill Early School at the US Nuclear
Regulatory Commission (NRC) offers an option from 9 to noon with early pick-up at noon, but the cost will remain the same ($1220/month).
