"Play gives children a chance to practice what they are learning."

                                                                                                                   --Mr. Rogers

Our half-day preschool program packs the fun and learning into 3 hours. Students are welcomed into the classroom and immediately dive into hands-on sensory experiences. Our teachers plan thematic units to help our students build on their skills and meet them where they are.  From our 2's class all the way through pre-K, we bring developmentally appropriate experiences to every child!

​​

Students at Galilee Preschool start making connections the moment they walk through the door! There is not a more endearing sight than watching a confident child walk excitedly into school each day.  

​​

Inside each classroom, adventure awaits!  A peek inside a classroom on any day may reveal students giggling as they play a sorting game during circle time to build their number sense, students using eye droppers and ice trays to explore color mixing while they strengthen their fine motor skills, students practicing pre-reading skills with a lively story retelling game, or students taking a trip on their class "airplane" to a new culture on Geography Friday!

​

Our teachers use literature-based activities and thematic units to stimulate each student's growth and development all while keeping the focus on creative PLAY!

Students in our two-year old classes do not need to be potty-trained. Students enrolled in our 3 and 4-year old classes must be potty-trained and able to use the restroom independently.
