Philosophy and Purpose:
The Strasburg Preschool program strives to meet the developmental needs of the whole child, with an emphasis on each child’s social, emotional, creative, and cognitive growth. Our program uses a variety of carefully selected curricula designed to support learning through play and prepare children for kindergarten.
We are committed to providing a safe and nurturing environment where children can actively explore, learn, build relationships, and create lasting memories. We strongly believe in developmentally appropriate practices while also preparing and appropriately challenging each child.

Children must be:
· 3 years old by August 1 of the enrollment year
