No

Ms. Lexie Dickinson · Answer

No, you wouldn’t capitalize preschool unless it’s the name of a specific preschool. The name of a specific preschool is a proper noun, which has to be capitalized. Just the word preschool is a common noun, so it should not be capitalized. Also, primary, secondary, technical, and higher should not be capitalized either, for the same reason.

No.Only capitalize if they are the names of specific schools: George Washington PreschoolDakota Primary SchoolWarren County High SchoolArt & Design Technical SchoolColumbia Collegeetc.“higher education” would never be capitalized.

Ms. Lexie Dickinson · Answer

You only capitalize the letter “p” in the word “preschool” if the word is at the begining of a sentence.

Ms. Lexie Dickinson · Answer

Generally, no. But it’s a nice point in this instance; I think you’d be justified in capitalizing the four levels of education like four ‘titles’ (sub-heads) in your essay.
