This program gives children a quality, school-readiness program which builds skills and friendships. The Rochester Early Childhood Assessment Project (RECAP) offers continuous feedback that ensures the activities and concepts of the program are effective. Children who participate in this program go to kindergarten ready to learn and succeed. UPK is free to all Rochester City School District residents who will be four by December 1 of the current school year. Generations offers UPK at its NW Rochester, NE Rochester, and SW Rochester centers. Some busing is available. Beginning Fall of 2008, Webster School District will be offering UPK to district four year olds. Generations is applying to be a partner in this effort and hopes to offer UPK on site at the Webster location.
