Classes at the Palisades Preschool

Our youngest learners (at least 2 years old on the first day of class) are introduced to a moderately structured routine in a caring, nurturing, play-based environment that offers children a stimulating curriculum and social setting.  Two teachers lead the Tadpole class from 9:00 am-12:00 pm with 2 day (Tuesday/Thursday), 3 day (Monday/Wednesday/Friday) or 5 day options (Monday through Friday).  The classroom serves a maximum of 8 children per day.

2 ½ -3 ½ year olds meet Monday through Friday from 9:00 am to 12:00 pm to continue their transition to a Pre-K classroom. Polliwogs are introduced to a structured routine including morning meeting, story time, singing, playing in free choice centers, lots of outdoor play and more.  Two teachers lead in the Polliwog classroom, serving a maximum of 16 children.

The Frog and Dragonfly classrooms serve 3-5 year olds and meet from 9:00 am to 2:00 pm Monday through Thursday, and until 12:00 pm on Fridays.  Children in the Frog and Dragonfly classrooms participate in a balance of child directed experiential play and structured learning activities. With the support of two nurturing teachers, children develop the social-emotional and cognitive skills necessary to be successful in school and beyond. Maximum class size for each class is 16 kids.
