Our Programs
Preschool
This program offers a hands-on learning experience guided by daily lesson plans in the areas of Language Arts, Music and Movement, Science and Nature, Social Science, Math and Art. Learning Centers and Circle Time are used to teach days of the week, calendar math, alphabet, weather, and daily themes.
Children should be 3 years old by August 1 of the enrollment year to enroll in the 3-day classes, and must be 3 years old by September 30 of the enrollment year to enroll in the 2 day morning T/Th class (9:00am – 11:30am). Three-day classes are scheduled M/W/F (9:00-11:30) and T/W/Th (12:30-3:00)
Pre-Kindergarten (Pre-K)
Our Pre-K program introduces Kindergarten concepts to children in a fun, interactive learning environment. The curriculum includes Letter Recognition, Phonemic Awareness, Whole Language, and Writing, along with daily lesson plan topics of Music and Movement, Science and Nature, Social Science, Math and Art. Two Pre-K programs are available. The 3-day class is offered to children who are 4 years old by September 30. The 3-day classes are offered in both morning M/W/F (9:00-11:30) and afternoon T/W/Th (12:30-3:00) sessions.
The 4-day (M/T/W/Th) class is intended for the older Pre-K students and those 5 year old children who are opting to wait another year before beginning Kindergarten. The 4-day program for older 4’s and 5’s is more independent learning periods, and requires more student focus. Students cover basic Pre-K topics more quickly and expand on the curricular goals. Students accepted into this class must be 4 years old by April 1 of enrollment year, or have approval from the Administrator. The 4-day class is offered in the morning from 9:00-11:30.
