About Barron Early Childhood School
Plano ISD operates three Early Childhood Schools (ECS) to serve students throughout our school district. We offer a quality preschool program for children ages three to five on three campuses: Barron ECS, Beaty ECS, and Pearson ECS. Barron Early Childhood School is the school that serves the children on the east side of Plano.
Barron ECS is part of the district plan that allows it to meet the state-mandated guidelines for prekindergarten students and the least restrictive environment mandate for preschool special education students as required by state and federal law.
Students may enroll under three different criteria: 1) Tuition-Supported Prekindergarten, OR, one of the following two state and federal programs: 2) Prekindergarten, OR 3) Preschool Program for Children with Disabilities (PPCD).
Parents of tuition-supported prekindergarten students will be responsible to provide transportation for their children and may apply to have their child attend the campus of their choice.
The school provides a language and literacy enriched environment where children have hands-on opportunities to learn. Our child-centered program follows the developmentally appropriate practices outlined by the National Association for the Education of Young Children. The curriculum framework follows the Texas Prekindergarten Curriculum Guidelines and provides an instructional program that is vertically aligned with the Kindergarten Texas Essential Knowledge and Skills.
