Animal Tales Preschool
Students learn core skills with an animal theme. They will also interact with “animal ambassadors” in the classroom. Our preschool provides small class sizes with a teacher-child ratio of at least one teacher for every eight students.
We strive to be a green preschool by using environmentally-friendly materials and integrating conservation in the classroom. Students will learn the importance of reduce, reuse, and recycle in a fun, hands-on way every day! Preschool is held in the Cargill Learning Center.
Each class has a maximum of 15 students. Classes run September through May. A registration fee of $100 per year applies to all students.
