We’re thrilled to have you here! Our program is led by passionate early childhood educators who specialize in nurturing young children’s development through play. With a strong emphasis on building foundational skills like social-emotional growth, critical thinking, and creativity, we aim to set the stage for a lifetime of learning and success. We recognize that all children need individualized learning experiences offered in a play-based learning environment by teachers skilled in building strong and nurturing relationships. RPS Preschool offers a variety of preschool options, including a.m., p.m., and All-Day services for young children ages 3 to 5 and their families.
Outside the classroom, we are deeply committed to building strong partnerships with families, working together to support each child’s unique educational journey.
We absolutely love what we do—and we're confident you will, too!
