UPK is a special program funded by the New York State Education Department to provide an early learning experience for the children of eligible families. The traditional classroom-based UPK framework is designed to introduce academics and enhance socialization, physical activity, communication, creative thinking, and prepare your child for kindergarten. Ken-Ton is expected to receive additional funding for children to attend this Full-Day educational program option, based on the number of students enrolled.

There is limited availability for the program based on grant funding. This funding allows us to enroll a limited number of students during the 2025-2026 school year. If more children apply than there are available slots, the district will hold a random selection process in the form of a lottery.
Ken-Ton will continue to accept applications until May 23, 2025. This is not a first come, first served process. If we receive more applications (half day and full day) than our cap allows, the school district will conduct a virtual random lottery on Wednesday, June 4 at 4pm. All completed applications received by May 23, 2025 will be included in the lottery.
You must be a resident of the district by May 23, 2025 to be included in the lottery. Your child must be up-to-date with New York State vaccination requirements and have an updated physical for the school nurse.
Registration can be completed through the Ken-Ton School District Central Registration Department, 1500 Colvin Blvd. For more information on registering for UPK, visit www.ktufsd.org/upk or contact us at either central_registration@ktufsd.org or 716-871-2090.
