Curious Kids Preschool

PhotoCurious Kids offers a Preschool experience for children who are 3 and 4 and who are potty trained. The teachers are certified and work with the children to help them develop the social and emotional skills needed to be successful in a classroom setting. One of our goals is to help make the transition of going to school and leaving home a smooth one.

Our classes for 3 year olds meet on Tuesday and Thursdays. Classes for 4 year olds are offered on Tuesday/Thursday, Monday/Wednesday/Friday or Monday through Friday. Both 3’s and 4’s offer classes that meet in the a.m. (from 9:00 -11:30) and in the p.m. (12:30 – 3:00). Classes usually run from the second week in September until the end of May.

Registration for the upcoming school year begins in February. An Open House will be held on February 22, 2010 from 6:30 – 8:00 p.m. for any families interested in registering for the 2010 – 2011 school year.
