FROM THE ARCHIVES
PRESCHOOL 1981/1982 GUIDE:
At our Preschool, children learn through an academic- and play-based
curriculum to facilitate learning concepts including writing, science,
vocabulary, numbers, shapes, math, and other cognitive abilities.
Program activities serve many developmental purposes; participants
learn problem-solving skills and how to sort out and organize new
ideas. They develop an understanding of social awareness, investigate
and experiment with new possibilities. The academics incorporated
into the program will ensure students are prepared to move to the
next level and eventually be Kindergarten-ready. SCHEDULE & PAYMENT
Our program is a mixture of teacher-guided activities and playtime,
with small and large group activities based around a weekly theme.
Children engage in fine and large motor skill activities, art projects,
music, books, dramatic play, cooking, writing and more. Children also
have monthly visits from B#Sharp Music for Children and the Park
District Naturalist. PAYMENT
At the time of registration, a nonrefundable deposit of $75 is made
(cash, check, or credit card). The remainder of the yearly fee is divided
into equal payments charged to a Visa, MasterCard, Discover card,
or AMEX. You will be notified of the equal amounts on the Preschool
Registration Form. A $20 service fee will be charged for each returned
check. The equal payments will be made by a credit card unless a
check or cash is presented to make full payment for the entire year at
registration.
