The pre-school program (4 and 5 year olds) introduces the concepts of cooperative play, appreciation for the arts and sciences, respect for other people and equipment and materials, and the development of honesty and personal dignity.  Children are encouraged to participate in a variety of activities to give them exposure to things like science, art, crafts, cooking, music, dance, social studies, and mathematics.  The children are encouraged to be curious and to pursue the topics that interest them while keeping an open mind to topics they see as boring or uninteresting.
