For this age group, our teachers guide the children through an organized and fun-filled three hours of circle time, free play, art and outdoor playtime, along with a variety of other activities. Preschool concepts such as colors, shapes, seasons, calendar terms, and holidays are integrated into the materials and activities offered to the children. Preschool runs for three hours, three days a week; and includes a snack time. The maximum class size is 12.

*While our goal is that children are independent at pottying before they start in Preschool or Pre-K; we know accidents happen at any age, especially when transitioning to a new routine at the start of the year. We will work with individual families to make sure their children feel confident and successful at school.
