The teachers work to help the children establish trusting, positive relationships and build a classroom community that flourishes with creative, joyful learning. The emphasis is to expose the children to various sensory, creative, and engaging activities using many materials. This helps the children learn to use these materials to express their ideas as their skills grow. The children also learn that their ideas are valued and respected as part of a larger group. The child must be potty-trained!

Age
The child must be 3 years old by August 1, 2026.

The teachers work to build on existing school readiness skills. The children are given the opportunity to work independently and in small groups. Daily lessons are aligned with preschool standards set forth by the Ohio Department of Education to ensure kindergarten readiness and are presented in a manner conducive to all learning styles. Students also have time for self-selected activities and continued relationship-building with peers and teachers.
