Preschool Classroom Learning Centers

For the love of building independence
At this age, your child is getting to know who they are and what they’re interested in! Teachers share thought-provoking prompts as part of our Learn as We Grow curriculum to help them become capable, creative, and confident students. The classroom for our Preschool Program includes seven thoughtfully designed Learning Centers to inspire joyful exploration and creativity.

Communications Center

So much to say, so little time! Preschoolers use the Communications Center to hone their ever-evolving language skills as they work toward writing, reading, and communicating. Fine motor skills are also on display as they cut, paste, organize, and assemble projects.

Creation Center

What do you see, notice, or wonder about? Art materials are kept in the Creation Center to encourage preschoolers to explore artistic expression. Grab an apron and see where the paintbrush takes you! There’s also a collection of beads, clay, and more.

Discovery Center

Practice foundational concepts needed for math and science by comparing, sorting, measuring, and weighing. Your preschooler is learning important academic skills in our Discovery Center as they play with scoops, water toys, light tables, and puzzles.

Imagination Center

Dream of singing, dancing, or acting? The Imagination Center has it all! It’s the perfect area to let your inner performer do the talking. Pretend play runs the show, and all performances are unscripted. Your preschooler may come home asking to put on a concert!

Invention Center

Whether prompted by a question or natural curiosity, preschoolers will love having the chance to try unique building materials in the Invention Center. They’ll work with other students to discover solutions and work together to create something extra cool.

Investigation Center

A sensory haven! Preschoolers are eager to use all five senses to make discoveries in the Investigation Center. They’re naturally curious at this age, so they’ll be eager to try the magnet wand, peer through the microscope, or flip through a science book for ideas.

Reflections Center

As your preschooler continues to grow and learn, having quiet time is an important part of our day. The Reflection Center gives them a soft space (think pillows and stuffies) to process what they’re learning and how they’re feeling. Growing up is a big adventure!

Preschool Program FAQs

Enrollment in our Preschool program is offered year-round, providing flexibility to support your family’s schedule and needs.

In preschool, children build essential skills across language, physical development, social interaction, and early thinking abilities in a structured, engaging environment. Through research-based learning experiences and hands-on activities, they begin developing problem-solving skills and confidence that help prepare them for kindergarten.

Preschool helps prepare children for kindergarten by building both academic and social skills in a supportive classroom community. Children develop self-esteem and confidence as they learn to work with others, while communication skills grow through opportunities to share ideas and listen to peers. Hands-on learning experiences encourage children’s natural curiosity and help them actively engage in their own learning.

Our Preschool curriculum offers interactive learning experiences that encourage children to follow their curiosity while building early academic skills. Through collaborative small-group activities and guided exploration, children learn to communicate with peers, solve problems together, and apply their learning across a variety of experiences.
