The Hatboro-Horsham Four-Year-Old Preschool Program was developed in 2009 using the Pre-Kindergarten Pennsylvania Learning Standards for Early Childhood. These standards are issued jointly by the Pennsylvania Department of Education and the Office of Child Development and Early Learning.

The Hatboro-Horsham School District is a Department of Human Services licensed childcare provider. Certified teachers will be employed in the program. The adult-to-child ratio is 1:10.
The locations of the program:
- Crooked Billet Elementary,101 Meadowbrook Rd., Hatboro, PA 19040
- Hallowell Elementary, 501 West Moreland Rd., Horsham, PA 19044
- Simmons Elementary School, 411 Babylon Rd., Horsham, PA, 19044.
It is our goal to offer a four-year-old preschool program that provides a wide array of experiences that will integrate developmental knowledge with concepts, skills, and attitudes that children need for physical, social-emotional, and cognitive learning. Our staff will work to build on the knowledge and experiences of each child. Opportunities to develop new skills through active exploration of hands-on projects and materials will be a part of the daily routine.
The curriculum used to guide children's educational journeys is:
- BluePrints 4.0 (literacy)
- Bridge in Mathematics,
- Foss Science
The four-year-old program is parent-fee funded. Operational costs, as well as all other associated costs, will be paid for from the revenues generated from the monthly fees.
