The Y Part-Day Preschool Program is designed for kids 2 – 5 years, that encourages social interaction and listening skills at the hands of caring, experienced teachers, and aides.

Children will be introduced to the wonderful world of colors, shapes, songs, music, movement, friendship, and more. Preschool-age children will also have a focus on school-readiness with lessons to begin and grow writing and reading skills, as well as early math concepts.

Growing with Creative Curriculums

Our programs utilize The Creative Curriculum, a comprehensive research-based curriculum, which supports active learning to inspire each and every child to become a more creative, confident thinker by integrating exploration and discovery as a way of learning.

Building Parent-Teacher Relationships

Communication about your child’s day is vital to building strong parent-teacher relationships. We use a parent-friendly virtual platform that allows teachers to share photos, videos, notes, and daily reports with parents throughout the day safely and securely.
