The Children’s Preschool is a place where chil­dren observe and exper­i­ment in order to make sense of their world, where they begin to build rela­tion­ships and become mem­bers of a larg­er com­mu­ni­ty. We have cre­at­ed a devel­op­men­tal­ly sound cur­ricu­lum based on what we know about how chil­dren learn.

We strive to serve as a sup­port for whole fam­i­lies, work­ing in part­ner­ship with par­ents to help meet the emo­tion­al, social, phys­i­cal and intel­lec­tu­al needs of their children.

It is our belief that chil­dren learn best when they are active­ly engaged in their own play and work. Care­ful­ly planned small group and indi­vid­ual activ­i­ties in art, cook­ing, music, wood­work­ing, sto­ry-telling, lit­er­a­cy, move­ment, math and sci­ence are the vehi­cles for pro­vid­ing such expe­ri­ences. The cur­ricu­lum is rich in oppor­tu­ni­ties to explore, cre­ate, and learn.

The Chil­dren’s Preschool val­ues diver­si­ty. We fos­ter a dynam­ic and wel­com­ing learn­ing envi­ron­ment that rec­og­nizes the con­tri­bu­tions of all chil­dren. We believe that chil­dren devel­op empa­thy, learn to think crit­i­cal­ly, and mas­ter skills by engag­ing with oth­er chil­dren and teach­ers from dif­fer­ent walks of life. The Chil­dren’s Preschool cares deeply about inclu­sion and equity.
