Bezos Academy preschools offer full-day programming five days a week, for children ages 3 to 5.
The Academy covers all operating expenses for its preschool programs at no cost to the families they serve. Bezos Academy hires, trains, develops, and pays educators.

The Academy has announced plans for five tuition-free preschools in Arizona, with capacity to serve 400 total students. In addition to the Glendale site, other locations enrolling students now for the 2025-26 school year include:
