General Info

Preschool Experience is a nationally accredited independent preschool started in 1980. Our program is designed for children ages 2 5 years old. We have three separate classrooms: a 2 3 year old class, the Bunnys, a 3 4 year old class, the Cubs, and a 4 5 year old class, the Rainbows. Each class is established separately, however opportunities do exist throughout the year for children of different ages to mix and interact together, particularly during the Extended Day program. The school has two convenient locations, each contiguous to our generous play yard. Upper School ( ages 3 5 ) is located in a sunny Victorian house on the first floor. The lay-out consists of two generous classroom areas, a "Kitchen" area for tactile play and painting, and a "Block Room" for small group play and music. Our secure playground has imaginary play stations, a sandbox, and a gym. Lower School ( age 2 ) is located on the opposite side of the play yard in an easily accessible classroom on the first floor of Trinity Episcopal Church Annex on Furber Lane. Our program is child-directed, based on each child's developmental needs. We place primary emphasis on the development of socialization skills, the fostering of each child's self-esteem, and the development of readiness skills. Our focus is on helping children gain the skills that will help them take their first independent steps and develop a joy of learning that enables them to interact with the world around them in meaningful and positive ways. We provide a nurturing, safe and friendly environment that encourages children to learn, share, and grow.
