Preschool 2010-2011

Expanding Educational Experiences


The park district preschool program curriculum reflects the Illinois Learning Standards and helps children develop pre-kindergarten skills including letter and name recognition, listening, health habits, cooperative play, fine motor skills and socialization skills. The classes are structured around academic and holiday themes that will enhance learning and fun. The experiences are both educational and recreational, which aid in social, physical, intellectual and emotional growth.

All preschool registration forms must be submitted along with a copy of your child?s birth certificate (if he/she is new to our program), a current immunization form and your first payment.


Pathway to Preschool
Children must be 2 ½ years old.  The parents of the children that are not fully capable of handling their own toileting needs must stay on site during class hours or be within five minutes of the building during class hours.

The Pathway to Preschool Program is designed for children that miss the age requirement for our regular preschool program. This program is designed to help build the bridge to our preschool program and provides an opportunity for 2 ½ -3 year olds to enhance their social, physical and creative development.  Children will learn through play and emphasis will be placed on becoming comfortable in a classroom environment.
