NEW PRE-K PROGRAM
The Downey School is one of three elementary schools in Brockton to offer a full-day pre-kindergarten program. The program is also offered at the Arnone and Hancock. Families interested in enrolling for the upcoming school year can click below to visit the Parent Information Center webpage.
