Preschool Program

September - June

At MapleCrest Academy, we're dedicated to providing an exceptional preschool experience that lays the foundation for a lifetime of learning. Our preschool program is designed to inspire curiosity, ignite imaginations, and foster a love of learning in every child between the ages of 2.5 and 4 years. What Sets Our Preschool Program Apart:

Small Class Sizes: We maintain small class sizes to ensure that each child receives individualized attention and support from our educators. This allows us to tailor our teaching strategies to meet the unique needs and learning styles of every child.

Qualified and Caring Educators: Our team of experienced and dedicated educators are passionate about early childhood education. They create a nurturing and supportive environment where every child feels valued, respected, and empowered to explore and learn.

Developmentally Appropriate Curriculum: Our preschool curriculum is carefully designed to meet the developmental needs and interests of young children. Through hands-on experiences, play-based learning activities, and age-appropriate challenges, we support children's growth across all areas of development – cognitive, social, emotional, and physical.

Focus on School Readiness: We understand the importance of preparing children for success in school and beyond. Our preschool program incorporates early literacy, numeracy, and critical thinking skills to ensure that children are well-equipped for the transition to kindergarten.

Holistic Approach: We take a holistic approach to preschool education, recognizing the interconnectedness of all aspects of development. In addition to academic skills, we foster social skills, emotional intelligence, creativity, and resilience – qualities that are essential for lifelong learning and success.

Enriching Learning Environment: Our preschool classrooms are vibrant, inviting spaces where children feel inspired to explore, discover, and create. We provide a wide range of materials, resources, and learning centers to stimulate children's curiosity and imagination.

Strong Parent Partnerships: We believe that parents are a child's first and most important teachers. We foster strong partnerships with parents through open communication, regular updates, and opportunities for involvement in their child's preschool experience.
