Welcome to our Early Childhood Application Process. Onslow County offers Early Childhood Program options, ranging from Birth-Four years of age to include; Early Head Start, Head Start, Three School, Title I, and NCPK. Since the success of your child is our priority, the Onslow County Early Childhood program staff is striving to provide this time for you to begin the application process independently using our online platform and finalizing the process with the support of an Early Childhood staff member via phone or in person. Please allow yourself 30 minutes to complete the online application in its entirety, as you will not have an opportunity to return to an application or save any responses. By completing an online application for our Early Childhood Programs all children in your home will be enrolled in the Dolly Parton Imagination Library program. Each month enrolled children will receive a book, until their 5th birthday, at no cost to your family. You will have an opportunity to upload all supporting documents into our secure database at the end of this portion of the application. A list of required supporting documents can be found at: www.onslow.k12.nc.us/prekapply
