Philosophy
The character values of caring, honesty, respect, and responsibility are at the heart of everything we do. At our Preschool, children are inspired to develop an excitement and joy for learning. Caring, qualified teachers offer a theme based, developmental curriculum that enhances a child’s total development and nurtures their potential.
In the classroom, children engage in activities that develop their fine and gross motor skills as well as strengthen their self-esteem, communication, reading, science, math and literacy skills.
Extra Activities
Students in Saratoga Springs’ 3 and 4 year olds classes swim weekly while the Wilton students enjoy a weekly tumbling class. Spanish lessons are also provided for these 3 and 4 year old students.
Students at our Wesley Intergenerational Learning Center held at the Wesley Community have a unique balance between a great preschool atmosphere and meaningful time with older adults. Thirty minutes of each class day, the students and older adults are brought together to interact, engage, support, educate and care for one another. The bonds that are created help our students grow and become kind, well-balanced youth as they develop an excitement and joy for learning.
