Pre-K Room
Preparing for Kindergarten and beyond!
Age Range: 4 years to 6 years
Child to Teacher Ratio: 6-10 to 1
Average Class Size: 12-14
The “Pre-K” class is led by a certified teacher and staff experienced with this older age group. Children interact with each other and the teachers at “centers” which focus on pre-reading, math skills, science, and art. Social interaction and problem solving skills are also fostered. Weekly library visits and seasonal field trips, including to parks and the theater, round out the curriculum.
Example Daily Schedule
As with all of our classrooms, the Pre-K schedule is flexible to meet the needs of the various ages of all the children. We communicate daily with parents to keep them informed of their child's growth and develop.
