The Pre-K program is an enhanced, developmentally appropriate program which provides a bridge between 4 year old preschool classes and Kindergarten. This transitional year for "young fives" gives them needed time to develop socially and cognitively. This program aims to put your child in the best position for kindergarten success. This class runs Monday through Friday, 9:00 to 12:00, with the option to stay for the full day. Children must be five by November 1st. The class has two teachers and an enrollment limited to twenty children.
