Transitional Kindergarten
Our pre-kindergarten curriculum further prepares your child for school and future educational success by building literacy, math, science, art and motor skills. The program incorporates award-winning educational software programs and basic Spanish language classes. Social skills are further developed in a daily group sharing and discussion time. Children’s confidence and curiosity continue to build through field trips and curriculum-based adventures.
