FULL DAY PRE-K- New for 2024-25

We are excited to add a full day Pre-K option for children attending Kindergarten the following year. This class is designed for children who have decided to wait another year, just miss the cut-off date, or want more in-depth learning and experiences before Kindergarten. They will build on previous knowledge in an engaging and hands-on classroom limited to 12 children.  Children will have "cold" lunch at school and develop valuable lunchroom skills in addition to academic learning. 

​

Full-Day Pre-K classes run:

​

MTWThF    8:30 a.m.- 3:30 p.m.
