Strong Start Academies

Strong Start Academies is a free, full-day early childhood education program for 3 and 4 year olds at 1617 Alta Drive in Las Vegas, run through the City of Las Vegas. Because the price range is listed as Free and the program is tied to a municipal listing page, this is a public school-readiness program rather than a private preschool, and it likely has enrollment eligibility requirements that a private program would not, so families should confirm eligibility before assuming automatic enrollment.

Programs on file include early childhood education, preschool, pre-kindergarten, school readiness, literacy development, math skills, science exploration, social-emotional learning, and physical development, covering the core areas typically expected of a quality pre-K curriculum. The single age bracket listed is 3-4, matching the age_min and age_max on file, so this is not a program for infants, toddlers, or older school-age children.

Strong Start Academies operates on a School Year schedule rather than year round, which aligns with a typical academic calendar rather than a summer camp or drop-in model. Hours are listed as 7:30 am to 6:00 pm Monday through Friday, closed Saturday and Sunday, giving working parents a full-day option that extends beyond a half-day preschool schedule.

The program is marked special needs friendly, with accommodations noted for developmental delay programs and general special needs support, which is a meaningful detail for families of children with early intervention needs looking for an inclusive public pre-K option.

No phone number is listed for this location. For enrollment information, eligibility requirements, and registration details, visit the program's page on the City of Las Vegas website at lasvegasnevada.gov.
