​Preschool 3's
A primary focus in the Preschool 3's (PS 3) program is on social development and classroom etiquette. For many children this is their first school experience; They are learning to share, take turns, play together and be part of a group.
We offer a three day program for threes.
The PS3 class will meet from 9:00 - 11:30 AM.

Practice Preschool is a class for children who are turning four before 12/31, who did not attend a 3's class this year but who you plan to have attend a 4's class in the fall. This 16 week class is intended as a first preschool experience and is designed to help children have an easier transition into a 4's class in the fall. Email us for more information.
​Pre-K Young 4's and 4's
​
Our Pre-K 4's class is intended to be the year before kindergarten for most children. More emphasis is put on recognizing letters, the sounds they make, and learning letter formation, as well as building on and gaining new skills in all areas of development - spiritual, physical, intellectual, emotional and social.
We offer a four day PK 4's classes.
The Pre-K 4's class will meet from 9:00 - 11:30 AM.

PK+
​
The Pre-K+ class is intended for those children who either were not quite ready for kindergarten or who miss the kindergarten cut-off in their community, but who will attend Kindergarten the following year. The majority of the children in these classes have had at least one, and sometimes two years of preschool already. These classes will build on skills children already have, while helping them develop new ones. These are still preschool classes so they will still include freeplay time and other typical preschool activities, but they will also be a little more structured and geared to the age and developmental abilities of the five year old child.
The PK+ class will meet from 9:00 AM - 12:00 PM.
