Welcome to Dallas Center-Grimes Community School District Preschool! We are very excited to have a role in your child’s education. Our program offers a quality preschool experience to 3 year-olds, 4 year olds, and children with disabilities who are served through special education programming. We have sections located at Heritage Elementary, Brighter Beginnings at the Grimes Child Care Center, and Kids Korner in Dallas Center. Our dedicated preschool staff implements the Iowa Quality Preschool Program Standards, as well as The Creative Curriculum, which is a comprehensive, research-based curriculum that features exploration and discovery as a way of learning.

Elementary Playgrounds

Due to construction, North Ridge Elementary playground is currently closed. We invite you to access one of DC-G’s other elementary playgrounds at this time. As summer is a time for renovations at many of our buildings, we ask that you play safely and avoid areas where construction equipment may be present. Thank you for understanding, and we will keep you updated when it reopens!
