School Ready!

Our prekindergarten classrooms support the continued development of essential school-readiness skills and prepare children to enter kindergarten with the language, early literacy, mathematics, social and emotional, physical, cognitive, and executive functioning skills necessary for success.

A Warm Welcome

Each morning, children receive a warm welcome from our pre-K teachers to help ease the transition from home to school. Prekindergartners will also sign in upon arriving, giving them a daily opportunity to practice writing their name.

Exploring and Discovering in Learning Centers

Your prekindergartner will engage in a variety of hands-on experiences that develop critical thinking skills, support school-readiness, build independence, and inspire a lifelong love of learning.

Enjoying Meals and Snacks

Prekindergartners share meals and snacks family-style with their teachers and friends, helping them learn good eating habits and manners. They also have the opportunity to serve themselves, which builds independence and strengthens motor skills.

Stay Connected Through Our Mobile App

Throughout the day, you will receive updates through a mobile app which allows our teachers to send messages, photos and videos with updates on your child’s day. You are also welcome to use it to send your child’s teacher a message.
