Preschool/Nursery School

This program focuses on the development of children ages 2.9 years to 4 years old. Class meets two days a week from 9:00-11:30am. If you choose to have your child stay for lunch pick up time will be 1:00pm. 

Most likely this class will be your child's first exposure to a structured environment outside of their own homes. Because of this, the main focus for development is on social development supported by academic skills:

  • Learning to follow rules
  • Taking direction from those other than immediate family
  • Developing conversation skills
  • Positive self image and interpersonal relations
  • Memory skills (songs, finger plays, games)
  • Exposure to academic language (colors, shapes, numbers, alphabet)

                                          

Pre-Kindergarten: 4 years to 5 years old 

In preparation for entry into Kindergarten this program focuses on the development of children ages 4-5 years old. Class meets three days a week from 9:00am-11:30am. If you choose to have your child stay for lunch pick up time will be 1:00pm.

Because this class is meant to prepare your child for their Kindergarten experience there is an increased focus on academics but their physical and social development is just as important. Learning takes place through play, projects and discussions as a class.

  
  • Understanding and following rules/schedules
  • Involvement in daily tasks enhancing their sense of responsibility
  • Language development through story telling and reading
  • Memory skills (songs, finger plays, games)
  • Full exposure to shapes, numbers, alphabet and writing
  • Motor skills development (cutting, coloring, painting, tearing, etc)
