The Rugby Early Learning Center is now taking applications for the 2016-2017 school year

Our preschool is now taking applications for the 2016-2017 school year. The application is due on April 1st and can be dropped off at any of these sites: Rugby High School, Ely Elementary, and the Rugby Early Learning Center. The program is free to all those who attend. Your child is eligible for the program if he or she is age three or four. It is a four day a week program (Monday - Thursday) and follows regular school hours. 

If you are curious of what a day for your child in our program looks like please click on the daily schedule below. 

We are pleased with the success of students that have attended our program. We started the Rugby Early Learning Center (a collaboration between RPS and Head Start) two years ago. Our first cohort's data are showing a positive academic trend. Below you will find data from our NWEA MAP Assessment. Please click on the image.

We are finding that the social and emotional benefits may outweigh the academic gains. Students who attend our program are able to work on some of the needed social and emotional skills prior to kindergarten. 

If you have further questions about our program please contact Michael McNeff at Rugby Public School District at (701) 776-5201. Thank you!
