Like many parents of preschool-aged children, you’re probably wondering, What comes next?
After all, there’s still a lot of growing and learning to do before entering elementary school. Let’s take a minute to explore some options, with these school readiness program offerings.
Pre-Kindergarten
In this program, short lessons are focused on simple topics, with an emphasis on hands-on activities. We follow the Frog Street Pre-K curriculum, developed by renowned curricular expert Pam Schiller, Ph.D., and following current Texas Pre-K guidelines.
Children develop important skills for future learning, such as problem solving, responsive listening, and using language as a learning tool. Social and collaborative skills are also enhanced.
Accelerated Pre-Kindergarten
For kids who are 4 ½ by September 1, this program ensures their school readiness. Children will be guided toward mastery of Texas Pre-K guidelines and gain important, early exposure to TEKS (Texas Essential Knowledge and Skills) Kindergarten readiness standards.
Key learning skills explored include following multi-step instructions, organizing work, controlling impulses, and sustaining attention over the course of a school day.
Private Kindergarten
This is a small class, with big opportunities. An excellent teacher-to-student ratio ensures personal, individualized attention for each child with a certified teacher.
Children will read collectively and independently, write to communicate ideas, and learn place value 1’s, 10’s, and 100’s through award-winning, research-based curriculum.
In addition, they will work independently and in groups, learn to set goals, and develop their critical-thinking skills, such as reasoning and analyzing.
