Feasibility and Profitability Analysis

In this low-risk first step, we’ll help you determine if a State Pre-K classroom is right for your center.

Is your center eligible to participate in a State Pre-K program?
What are the requirements of the program? (e.g., teacher credentials, ratios, curriculum, classroom sizes, etc.)
How profitable will a new State Pre-K program be in your center?
How likely is your center to be awarded a State Pre-K classroom?

Proposal Preparation and Submission

Requests for Proposals/Applications (RFPs or RFAs) are often confusing, time-consuming, and not easily accessible. In the past 3 years alone, we and the teams we have led won more than 100 new State Pre-K classrooms for child care centers, with a very high success rate. We’ll do the heavy lifting to complete and submit a proposal that gives your center the best chance to be awarded.

Ongoing Administrative and Compliance Support

The revenue of a new State Pre-K classroom comes with additional responsibilities to meet agency or school district requirements. We understand the objectives and requirements of these programs and can help shoulder the burden of ongoing administrative and compliance after your center has been awarded a State Pre-K classroom.

UPK Strategy and Planning

The State Pre-K landscape is complex, with completely different program funding and requirements from state-to-state, region-to-region, or school district-to-school district. With experience winning and operating State Pre-K programs across the country, we are well positioned to help multi-site and multi-state providers determine the best way to navigate the State Pre-K space.
