Apple Blossom Centers

Austin ISD is excited to offer a new Pre-K3 program in partnership with Travis County. 

Apple Blossom Centers offers half-day and afterschool care to supplement existing state-funded half-day Pre-K3 programs. This no-cost program offers care until 6 p.m., allowing parents to work, participate in job training, or attend school full-time to support their family's economic well-being.
