Primary School
Five Day PreKindergarten Program
The goal of our Pre-K curriculum is to meet the needs of the whole child with learning opportunities for social, emotional, physical, and intellectual development. Students that attend our all day Pre-K are well prepared for the transition to Kindergarten. The curriculum introduces basic reading, math, science, and social studies concepts in an age appropriate manner. We also have an extended care program to accommodate working parents. In addition to classroom learning, students attend special classes such as Music, PE, STEAM, Art and Library.
