VPK (4 Year Olds)
Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays - 8:30 A.M. - 1:45 P.M. (staggered start and end) FREE with Florida VPK Voucher
Children in this age group are mastering language skills and looking for more complex ways to express themselves through storytelling, writing, play and art. In order to meet their individual needs, we use a wide range of learning tools, including hands-on experiences in math, science and language arts. Other activities include journaling, outdoor education, building activities, crafts that incorporate large-concept learning, and lots of one-on-one engagement with teachers. Our meaningful, experiential curriculum allows the VPK students to delve deeper into their own curiosity as well as the cognitive learning concepts they need for Kindergarten.
Tuesday and Thursday Enrichment Class - 8:30 A.M. - 1:30 P.M.
This class expands on our VPK curriculum with more hands-on literacy and STEM projects, with activities in both English and Spanish. It is a great bonus program for those families considering dual-language choice programs, as well as those looking for a little extra help in preparing for Kindergarten!

3s Program
Tuesdays and Thursdays - 8:30 A.M. - 12:30 P.M.
For many children, our threes program is their first introduction to a school environment, so we focus much of the time on socio-emotional development. Children are learning to express themselves through play, language, and behavior. We use Conscious Discipline curriculum tools to guide them through this process. We help them explore the world around them through group play, independent exploration, and large-group hands-on lessons. We facilitate whole-child development through stories, puzzles, science activities and free play both indoors and outdoors. We emphasize literacy through shared stories, one-on-one interactions with staff, and lessons on the world around us.
Children must be fully potty-trained to participate in our preschool programs.
