Objectives of Our Pre-Kindergarten Program in Ooltewah

It’s our goal to help children make a successful transition from preschool to kindergarten. In order to ensure they have the confidence needed to succeed, we emphasize crucial skills in math and reading as well as social development. Not only will your child have a head start in learning, but he or she will have experiences that develop self-esteem and provide opportunities for relationship building.

Our teaching staff has been trained in the subject of Early Childhood Education and has a firm understanding of the developmental stages that children go through at this critical age. We offer plenty of supportive care, maintaining a low student-teacher ratio to provide each child with the individualized attention they deserve. In addition, we strive to balance guided learning with student-driven educational experiences that enable children to connect with the magic of discovery.
