Preschool Program
Encouraging Exploration and Discovery

Our preschool program is built around the belief that children learn best through hands-on experiences and active exploration. We provide a safe and supportive environment where children can express themselves, experiment with new ideas, and build meaningful relationships with their peers and teachers.

A Thematic Approach to Learning

At The Rainbow School, we use a theme-based curriculum that integrates various subjects into a cohesive and engaging learning experience. Themes such as seasons, animals, community helpers, and the natural world provide a context for exploring concepts in:

  • Reading and Language Arts: Through stories, songs, and interactive activities, we introduce early literacy skills and help children develop a love for reading and communication.
  • Mathematics: Hands-on activities like counting games, sorting, and pattern recognition help children build a strong foundation in math.
  • Science and Health: Simple experiments and observations encourage curiosity about the world around them, while health education promotes good habits and self-care.
  • Art and Music: Creative expression is a key component of our program, allowing children to explore their imagination through drawing, painting, crafts, and music.
  • Physical Education: We encourage active play and physical development through games, outdoor activities, and movement exercises.

Social and Emotional Development

We understand that preschool is a time for children to learn how to navigate their emotions and build positive relationships with others. Our teachers create a warm and welcoming environment where children feel safe to express themselves and learn important social skills like sharing, empathy, and cooperation. Group activities, circle time, and guided play help children develop the social and emotional skills they need to thrive in a group setting.

Flexible Scheduling to Meet Your Needs

We know that every family has different needs, which is why we offer flexible scheduling options for our preschool program. You can choose from 3, 4, or 5-day schedules, making it easy to find a program that fits your family’s routine. Whether your child attends part-time or full-time, they will benefit from a consistent and enriching learning environment.

Pre-K Program: Preparing for Kindergarten and Beyond

As children approach kindergarten age, they are ready for a more focused and structured learning experience. Our Pre-K program is designed to provide children with the skills and confidence they need to succeed in kindergarten and beyond.

Part-Time Preschool and Pre-K Only Program

Starting in September 2024, we are excited to offer a part-time, six-hour program for children ages 12 months and older. This program is perfect for families looking for a more traditional preschool and pre-kindergarten experience providing ample opportunity for socialization and learning experiences without being in care full days.

Kindergarten Readiness

Our Pre-K curriculum focuses on developing the skills that are essential for a successful transition to kindergarten, including:

  • Early Literacy and Math Skills: We introduce children to more advanced concepts in reading, writing, and math through engaging activities that challenge and inspire.
  • Critical Thinking and Problem-Solving: Through games, puzzles, and hands-on projects, children learn to think critically and solve problems creatively.
  • Social and Self-Regulation Skills: We help children develop the social skills they need to work cooperatively, manage their emotions, and take responsibility for their actions.
