Pre School Academics

Our youngest boys enter our Pre-Kindergarten and Kindergarten program full of life and energy, curiosity and innocence. We tap these qualities to begin character-building at a very early age. By using a caring, nurturing and fun approach, we develop in our Pre-K and Kindergarten boys an excitement about learning and a readiness for the academic subjects they will encounter at higher levels in Lower School and beyond. Early on, the boys learn to have a positive attitude about themselves, others and the School. Basic learning skills are fostered through integrated activities incorporating early math, reading and writing, science, art, music and athletics. Students are also introduced to computers and the Spanish language. Parents occasionally join us in the classroom or on field trips to promote our hands-on approach. Each Pre School child's uniqueness is celebrated while he develops cooperative learning skills and understands what it means to be a kind and caring classmate.
