Full-Day Preschool (tuition-based)
Our full-day preschool program is tuition-based and provides an excellent social and pre-academic experience for children ages 3-5 year old.
Classrooms are composed of communities of learners with a range of abilities and gifts and learning and instruction is individualized as children progress at their own rate. The classroom family has a maximum of 18 children, an early childhood certified teacher and two paraprofessionals. The multi-aged classroom creates a learning environment where younger children are nurtured by older children and benefit from collaborative learning while older children show increased levels of confidence and leadership.

- School hours are 8:15 a.m.-3:15 p.m., Monday-Friday.
- Before (starts at 7:00 a.m.) and after care (ends at 5:30 p.m.) is available for an additional cost.
