The preschool program is located at 1705 Maple Street in Homestead, PA. We provide in-person weekday programs to students age 3-5. The Pre-K school day is 8:30am-1:30pm and includes breakfast and lunch. Before & After School Care is 6:30-8:30am & 1:30-6pm and includes fun activities, afternoon naptime, snack, and free play.

A child's parent or legal guardian must complete this form by noon on Friday, August 19, 2022. If spots are still available after this deadline, applications will be accepted on a first-come, first-served basis. It will be helpful to have the following information ready before starting this form: 
  • emergency contacts (including phone numbers & residential addresses)
  • child health information (including doctor's office address and health insurance policy number)
  • household income (you can find this on Line 9 of 2021 Tax Form 1040)
The Pre-K School Day is FREE for foster/kinship care children or families meeting PA Pre-K Counts requirements (less than 300% Federal Poverty Level). 

All Pre-K programs are FREE for families enrolled in Child Care Works subsidy (also called CCIS). MUSA will cover your weekly copay amount if average monthly attendance is at least 80%. Call 412-350-3577 and ask to speak to a Family Navigator to see if you qualify. Use Provider Number 9111214162-1.

If you are ineligible for Child Care Works, per-child tuition is based on 2022 household income levels. The maximum weekly rates for full-day care (6:30am-6pm) are:
  • <100% Federal Poverty Level (FPL): $15 weekly
  • 100-200% FPL: $30 weekly

  • 300-400% FPL: $120 weekly
  • >400% FPL: $165 weekly
The Before & After School programs are a great option for families enrolled in an AIU Head Start classroom at 1705 Maple Street! We will dropoff and pickup your child from their classroom at the appropriate time. We will also provide free daytime care (including breakfast, lunch, and educational instruction) if their Head Start room closes unexpectedly.

Complete enrollment includes: 1) This online intake form, 2) Signatures via DocuSign or in-person, and 3) Health & Immunization records. Incomplete enrollment may result in forfeiture of your child’s spot or a $50 late fee. After you complete this application form, you will receive an automated copy of your answers at the first email address you provide below. We will follow up with you to finalize your enrollment by Tuesday, August 23. Contact nfechter@musasv.org or 412-328-4603 with questions. You can also call to provide information over the phone if you do not want to use this online form.

About MUSA: The Maple Unified Student Academy (MUSA) is a nonprofit committed to providing high-quality educational programming in the Mon Valley for nearly 60 years. All MUSA programs are state-licensed and rated as a STAR 4, the highest quality rating given by the state. We use The Creative Curriculum, which focuses on exploration and discovery learning through large and small group instruction, socialization, formative assessments, and correlating lessons. This allows us to implement language and literacy, mathematics, social studies, imaginative play, and physical activity. Units and structured lessons are developmentally appropriate and include daily circle time where the students are taught phonological awareness, problem solving skills, motor skills, and much more! The 2022-2023 school year runs September to June (closed on major holidays). We aim to provide safe, inclusive, developmentally-appropriate programs that make learning fun! MUSA costs are subsidized by donations, grants, and government funding. We are required to collect different types of paperwork and information in order to stay eligible for many of these funding sources, and we try to streamline the enrollment process as much as possible. The information provided during enrollment is kept confidential and only anonymous aggregated data is used for reporting purposes.
