We offer two or three day Preschool and Pre- Kindergarten sessions in the morning or afternoon. Each session is two and a half hours long. We also offer a 5 day Kindergarten program, either half or full day. We feature low teacher-to-student ratios and bright, lively classrooms.
Preschool:
Our preschool program is for 3 year old children. Our preschoolers spend their year getting used to a school setting, routine, expectations, and schedules. We focus on social and emotional development and help foster healthy relationships with peers. They also participate in developmentally appropriate activities that reach toward Illinois State Standards for 3-4 year old children, setting them up to transition to our Pre-Kindergarten program the following year.
Morning Session: 9:00-11:30 AM
Afternoon Session: 1:00 – 3:30 PM
Pre-Kindergarten:
Our Pre-Kindergarten program is designed for 4 and 5 year old children. Children in our Pre-K program are introduced to phonics, writing, mathematics, science, social studies, and more. They follow standards set forth by the state that will set them up for success in the Kindergarten program.
Morning Sessions: 9:15 – 11:45 AM
Afternoon Sessions: 1:00 – 3:30 PM
Kindergarten:
Children in our Kindergarten program must turn 5 prior to September first of the current school year. While in our Kindergarten program, children get the unique experience to explore nature and the farm while also reaching toward the same developmental milestones as public school. Our program still allows kindergarteners the opportunity to learn through play while still hitting their academic milestones through a mixture of teacher and child led activities.
Half Day: 8:45 – 11:45 AM
Full Day: 8:45 AM – 1:45 PM
