Springboard Schools Preschool Program
Preschool age is marked by rich curiosity, independence, and burgeoning social awareness. Preschoolers will learn to work within a community, ask inquisitive questions, and practice skills that will prepare them for Pre-Kindergarten. While fine motor skills continue to refine, cognitively the preschooler is ready to be introduced to basic educational concepts. Socially, preschoolers continue to practice communication, impulse control, self-expression and conflict resolution.
Springboard Schools believes that free time for exploration, coupled with guided instruction helps the preschooler prepare for Pre-Kindergarten and beyond.
