Preschool Programs

2025-2026 School Year Preschool Programs

The preschool program serves children aged 3-6 years, and occasionally 2½ year-olds who are developmentally ready to participate in preschool activities. Children attend 5 days per week either for mornings only or full day.

We are a Reggio-inspired early childhood program. For more on our approach, please view our Curriculum and Philosophical Statement pages.

Morning Class Our 5-day morning class meets for 4 hours each day. This program often serves children taking their first foray into the preschool environment. Children will have the opportunity to independently explore relationships and play with new friends and teachers while learning a set of introductory school routines. Process-focused art, creative play with loose parts and natural materials, and ample time to explore the outdoors are at the heart of this program. Classes will enjoy a snack and lunch from home, eating with friends and teachers. Offered from 9:00-1:00 pm. Class size ranges from 10-14 students with 2 teachers.

Full Day Class Our 5-day full day class meets for up to 6 hours each day. With longer days, this program often serves children preparing to take on kindergarten the following year. Classes delve into a wider range and greater depth of investigations, play and school routines. Process-focused art, creative play with loose parts and natural materials, and ample time to explore the outdoors provide a foundation for extended learning and creativity in this program. Classes will enjoy a snack, and lunch from home, eating with friends and teachers, recharge with a short period of rest, then regroup for an afternoon of play and learning. Enrichment can include but is not limited to yoga, and foreign language. Offered Monday through Thursday from 9:00-3:00 pm. Fridays from 9:00-1:00 pm. Class size ranges from 10-14 students with 2 teachers.
