About Preschool

Enrichment 3’s Classrooms
This faith-filled program is dedicated to children who may be experiencing a classroom setting for the first time and will have 2-3 years before kindergarten.
This Reggio Emilia inspired classroom is designed to not only be functional but reflective of your child’s learning. This is especially true in our peaceful environment, with tranquil colors and materials that inspire curiosity and creativity. We encourage children to express and deepen their knowledge through:

• Social-emotional development
• artwork
• dramatic play
• early writing
• block play
• math and literacy provocations
• extensive outdoor experiences
• immersion in children’s literature
• nature and scientific explorations
• music and dance
• fine and large motor experiences

Pre-Kindergarten Classrooms
These developmentally appropriate, faith-based classrooms serve 4 and 5-year-old children. The primary focus in Pre-K is to create a caring community of learners.
Our play-based approach to teaching your child is grounded in the understanding and research of how young children learn and develop. We endeavor to meet your child where they are, both as individuals and as part of our classroom community. We strive to assist your child in obtaining reachable, yet challenging goals. We accomplish this by:

• assisting children in learning how to work together and make friends
•  plan activities that ensure all children can join in
• provide materials and activities that interest and challenge the children
• set clear expectations of behavior and explain those expectations
• provide meaningful lengths of time for children to become deeply involved in their learning
• provide activities that develop an interest and love for literacy, mathematical thinking, scientific and nature exploration
• pay close attention to and support children’s interests, skills, and knowledge
