I called Monday and was told the letters where begin sent out, for this program and for Head Start.

I was wondering has anyone recived the letter yet,if you filled out an application for your child to attend the More at 4 program or Head start. 

I know my friend received a letter from them last friday. I have yet to receive anything. 

Thanks for your comment, We are still waiting on ours, maybe it will come soon. 

Were still waiting on one also... 

We are waiting too.....
Its so aggrivating! I think my mailbox knows tht we are expecting the letter..we have gotten no mail 3 days this week. This has never happened! 

Yeah, the mailbox knows LOL, we have gotten Piggly Wiggly sales papers and other sales papers and that all. 

My sis recieved hers last week. I am still waiting on mine. 

I wonder if the ones who got in are getting theirs first. 

I am starting to guess that, my niece got in. I hope not though! 

I hope not mine really wants to go. Glad your niece got in. 

Yeah I know what u mean! My daughter has been talking about wanting to go to school for the past year lol, she will be disappointed if she doesn't get in. I hope ur daughter gets in! 

Hope yours gets in also. 

im way tooo lazy to read all this. i guess if my daughter is three she can't fit in? does anyone know the cut off dates? when they get it how long do they last? do they get picked up by the bus? when does school start and end? do you have to be the for lunch?

If you get a letter now it means your child has gotton in, I did not get a letter last Aug but was called in Oct letting me know a spot had come open for my daughter, deff know how you all are feeling..lol

I was allowed to sign my 3 yr old up this yr but was told that they take all 4 yr olds 1st, if by chance they run out of 4 yrs olds they would take him into the program and then he would automatically be in for next yr also as a 4 yr old..slim chance he's getting in as a 3 yr old though..when they get in they will go the full school yr just like reg school(or whats left of the school yr if your child is takin in later), full days also..they are allowed to ride the bus, you do not have to be there for lunch..breakfast, lunch and snacks are provided everyday. 

Do you have to pay for More at 4? We want to go back to Camp Lejeune when our time is up here in SC and I want to put my youngest son in something when we go back. Just want to be prepared for what we find.

My oldest son is in Pre-K here and it's free. Do they have anything like that there? 

krystal, m@4 is a free program run by onslow county- you have to sign up at the education building behind triangle navy fed. it is pretty much a "preK" program.
mrs. p- tehy provide breakfast lunch and snack. you are not allowed to pack a snack or lunch as they are on a nutrition plan and all children are fed the same thing. bus depends on if your school provides transportation. they have more at 4 classes in elementary and also daycare facilities (although all more at 4 classes are taught by more at 4 teachers!)

from my experience last year, we got our letter the 3rd week in august. my son was accepted into the program at a daycare facility, not an elementary school.

some of my friends' children were also accepted and recieved letters at varying dates during august. 

Jess- thats good to know I'm still hoping my 4 yr old got in and my 3yr old in head start. 

I just called the County and asked about the More at 4~ since my Son has not received his letter yet.
She said that all of the Head Start kids had their letters sent out and all the applicants of the More At 4 will receive their letter by August 31. 

Thank you BMK. 

She said that all of the Head Start kids had their letters sent out and all the applicants of the More At 4 will receive their letter by August 31.

What's the difference between the two???

This will tell you the difference in the two. 

Thanks! =) 

your welcome. 

The Head Start is for low income families and the acceptance to this program depends only on income(thats what the lady told me on the phone).
More at 4 does not depends on income only. 

Am I the only one still waiting on the letter? I wonder if I should call and ask about it? Just hoping he gets to go to school this year! 

We are waiting too~ Everyone will receive letters by the end of the month... 

Yeah Im just hoping he goes to school and I hate waiting until last minute. I still gotta learn the patience thing :) 

I got my letter yesterday. My son is going to Spec #4. :) He's so excited! 

I got my letter yesterday also, my daughter is going to New Beginings here in Richlands.

I'm still waiting on my Head start letter. 

I got my letter yesterday, my son will be going to Spec #6. A friend of mine is still waiting on hers.
