Preschool
Classroom
The preschool classroom focuses on developing the base for learning and helping children build self-confidence while learning tools such as concentration, independence, and order. The classroom is built for children to learn based on their own interest and level. Lessons are taught to children individually or in small groups, and are dependent on the child's interest or by the teacher's observation that they are ready. Our preschool classroom is intended for children ages 2½ - 5, however the children can move up when they are ready.
We offer 2, 3, 4, and 5-day programs for preschool children. These can be all full or all half days. We recommend children transition from half days to full days as they get more comfortable with being away from home.
