More at Four (http://www.governor.state.nc.us) is a state funded pre-kindergarten educational program for 4-year-old children. Cabarrus Partnership for Children is Program, Fiscal and Contract Administrator for this program, in collaboration with Kannapolis City Schools and Cabarrus County Schools.

Eligibility is based on 75% of state median family income. Children may be eligible with higher family incomes if they have additional risk factors, such as limited English proficiency, an Individualized Education Plan because of special needs, or chronic health problem. Priority is given to children who have never been enrolled in an early education program, with next priority to children who have not been enrolled in programs of high quality. A child who is now 4 may still apply for the 07-08 school year until April 15, 2008. A child must turn 4 on or before August 31, 2008, to be eligible for the 2008-2009 school year. The date for kindergarten entry will change to August 31 in 2009.
