classes offer a loving, secure environment
for a child’s first preschool experience.
The successful separation from parents and
the development of a positive bond with the
teachers are primary goals of these classes.
The classroom environment will be structured
to foster the development of the child’s
communication and social skills.

These
classes provide the children with
opportunities for exploration through
age-appropriate activities and through
interactions with adults and other
classmates. An environment is created in
these classes that encourages the
development of acceptable social skills and
learning habits. This environment will
foster the growth of self-confidence in each
child. Occasional field trips are taken
using parent transportation and
participation.
These classes
are designed to develop a child’s social, emotional, cognitive,
physical and creative talents through fun, safe and fascinating
activities. Pre-reading skills, number and letter recognition,
introduction to Spanish and to sign language, scientific
explorations—all are integrated into the curriculum for the
4-year-old child. Five fun field trips are taken during the
year. Parent transportation for the Rabbits and Raccoons classes
supplements the use of the Club’s 15-passenger van; parent
participation on the Rabbits and Raccoons fieldtrips is
encouraged. The Ponies class goes on a field trip each Friday in
the Club’s van. Older 4-year olds and 5-year old children who
are not going onto kindergarten are encouraged to register for
the Raccoons class.
