Preschool

Preschool is an important time to learn vital academic readiness skills from the letter and number recognition to rote and one-to-one correspondence counting. But this is also an important time to develop self help skills, social skills and interactive play with peers. We will be accomplishing all this through circle time, free play time, center work, and group activities. 

Meet our preschool educators and learn more about preschool in Canton!
