Preschools & Pre-K Programs
Gentle, playful learning in the year or two before school starts, helping your child build confidence, friendships and early skills.
Preschool and Pre-K focus on the year or two before your child starts school. The pace is playful and child-led — not academic in a formal sense — but behind the play sits a clear goal: helping your child feel ready, confident and excited for school when the time comes. You'll see lots of story time, songs, creative play, outdoor exploration and early literacy and number activities. Just as importantly, your child learns the social side of school life — taking turns, sharing, following simple instructions, managing friendships, and becoming more independent with things like putting on their own coat. Many preschools also help with potty training and self-care routines.
