Pre-Kindergarten

The Pre-Kindergarten program is a balance of academic learning and child-directed exploration and play. Our goals are that children love to learn, love to come to school and upon completion of this program will be successful at kindergarten entry.
Coming to school 5 days per week always plenty of time for the children to learn and practice skills which include reading, writing, math, science and social studies.
