This is not exactly what you asked, but all low-income 4-year-olds in MCPS are eligible for pre-k, at an elementary near where they live.

So, all ES have a Pre-K program in their ES building? What's the difference between a Pre-K in an ES building and one that is say at Rockville HS? Are the ones at the HS also for lower-income families or can anyone apply? Will call HS to ask if they have a program and eligibility requirements.

No, not all ES have a Pre-K program in their ES building.
The ones in an ES building will be staffed 100% by adults and the ones in the HS are staffed by HS students under the supervision of child development teachers.
The HS-based programs are not designed to meet the needs of low-income children, but to teach high school students about early childhood development. So it may be possible for anyone to apply.

It's not full time child care because it is really meant to meet the needs of high schoolers who want to learn about early childhood development. So, typically it would be open from 7:55 to noon everyday, 4 days a week.

OP the program is called child development for high schoolers. This link gives some info and lists the schools that have it. https://www.montgomeryschoolsmd.org/career-readiness/plans/cda-preschool/

Do you have any feedback if your kid attended this Pre-K?

I believe these programs are part of an education program on early childhood education for high school students interested in this field. Blair HS has one.

Yes. Rockville HS has one as well. It is not at all schools.
