Objectives of Our Pre-K Program

The main objective of our pre-kindergarten program is to make the transition from preschool to kindergarten as smooth as possible so students can enjoy a successful beginning to their academic journey. We help get children ready for school through activities that encourage them to hone in on their math and literacy skills, giving them the tools they need to become active readers and critical thinkers.

We maintain low student-teacher ratios to ensure children have access to the support they deserve. Our Pre-K teachers have been trained in Early Childhood Education and understand the importance of balancing guided learning with student-initiated learning. The result is a stimulating environment that enables children to gain confidence in their skills and prepares them to succeed in school.
