Maple Tree offers an extremely polished Pre K Program that fulfills all areas of development and seeks to provide a stellar learning experience in a smaller setting. Before heading off to Grade School where large class sizes are the norm, ensure your child gets the individual attention they need and deserve in our thriving program. Space is limited so inquire early!
Language and Literacy: Children learn letter-sound relationships in a literacy rich, learning environment. Learning the Alphabet along with phonemic and print awareness are the three predictors that give preschoolers a foundation for learning to read.
Mathematics: Children become familiar with numbers and counting while concepts of patterning, graphing, sorting are introduced. Our Teachers embrace a STEM based approach to education which also flows nicely into our Science curriculum.
Science/Discovery: Children learn inquiry through cause and effect. Experimentation allows students to use critical thinking skills allowing us to understand a bigger world around us.

**Teachers gather evidence through daily assessments and conferences are given twice a year to discuss your child’s development with the goal of being Kindergarten Ready.
Maple Tree Pre K graduates are more then prepared to meet the Full Day Kindergarten standard within the district. Maple Tree students exude confidence and enthusiasm upon entering Kindergarten. This stands as a testament to the quality and dedication only a small private preschool such as Maple Tree Day School can provide.
* Children in this room must be fully potty trained.
Maple Tree Environments exude inspiration. Our classrooms are designed to meet our Little Learners needs individually and socially and are always age appropriate. Our shelf materials are switched out monthly as children’s interests change and classes evolve. We have high standards and insist on quality shelf work that is age appropriate and geared towards developing the child. We seek to provide spaces for group activities and conscientiously provide smaller intimate spaces for smaller groups and/or individual play. Classrooms are always happy, engaging, and purposeful.
