The Preschool Care Program (3-4 years old)
In our Preschool Academy: Skill Builders program, children ages 3-4 learn through direct,hands-on experiences with people, objects, events, and ideas. Trained, degreed teachers who understand child development and how to encourage the important areas of learning in the preschool years offer guidance and support.
The Kindergarten Care Program (4-5 years old)
Our Preschool Academy: Kindergarten Enrichment program for 4 – 5 year olds provides a nurturing environment where your child’s natural curiosity is used as a springboard to learn skills that are necessary for success in school. In our teaching approach, teachers and children are active partners in the learning process. This balanced approach to adult-child interaction — also called “intentional teaching” — is critical to the effectiveness of the program
Program Features
- We created a learning environment that supports young children thinking abilities, learning processes, social competencies and development.
- Our teaching team ensures that curricula experiences (creative representation, language and literacy, initiative and social relations, classification, number, space and time) are all aligned with Ohio’s Early Learning Content Standards.
- Technology is a big element of the instructional cycle with Preschoolers. Each classroom has computers and comprehensive listening centers. Kids Way Software assists our teaching team in promoting letter recognition, memory skills, fine motor dexterity, problem solving, multicultural awareness, matching, counting, writing and music note understanding.
- Observation-based assessments that demonstrate progress with regular written and verbal communications to parents
- Portfolios to collect your child’s work and capture their unique creative expression
- Children who will turn 4 years old before September 15th participate in our Pre-Kindergarten program. The Ohio Public Schools generally accept children who are 5 years by the above date.
