Goal: The Butterfly Class is designed for our 4–5 year olds as they prepare for the transition to kindergarten. Our goal is to provide a developmentally appropriate, academically rich environment that nurtures growth in early literacy, numeracy, cognitive development, and physical coordination. This final year of preschool serves as a bridge to elementary school, helping children build the confidence and foundational skills needed for a successful transition to kindergarten.

​

Academic Focus: The Butterfly Class supports kindergarten readiness through a balance of play-based learning and structured activities. Our teachers engage children in developmentally appropriate experiences that build foundational skills in language and literacy, early math, science, social studies, and social-emotional development. Individual progress is monitored regularly, allowing teachers to tailor instruction to meet the unique needs of each child and ensure a strong start to their academic journey.
