Preschool for All

Our Preschool for All program offers a nurturing half-day environment where young learners thrive through hands-on experiences and social interaction. Children engage in creative play, collaborative projects, and guided activities that promote essential social skills like sharing, communication, and problem-solving. Our curriculum emphasizes exploration and curiosity, helping each child, starting at age 3, develop confidence and a love for learning while building friendships and teamwork skills. We provide speech and language services to support child's growth as needed and conduct screenings three times a year to monitor progress. We strive to create joyful learning moments that lay the foundation for lifelong success!

    If my household is residing within another, how do I show proof of residency?

    It is common for families to reside with others like grandparents, relatives, or friends. If this is the case for the child you are enrolling, you must obtain a written letter from the homeowner acknowledging that your family/student is living within their household to establish proof of residency.
