Early Preschool
Between the ages of two and three brain power increases at an astonishing rate. Maximizing on this formative year, our Early Preschool teachers create a joyful and nurturing learning environment in which budding academic and social-emotional skills flourish. Early preschoolers grow in their independence, language, and thinking skills through a predictable and supportive daily routine which includes preparing them for the next chapter — Preschool! Note: Part-time programming is subject to availabilty.
Mandarin Bilingual
Stratford’s newly expanded Mandarin Bilingual program, beginning in Preschool*, builds upon foundational knowledge, skills, and concepts in our accelerated bilingual curriculum. Designed to promote consistency and continuity for young learners, Stratford’s rich STEAM-infused Preschool curriculum is taught by a two-teacher team, one speaking and instructing in Mandarin, and the other in English. This team teaching approach creates an inclusive and responsive space in which individual needs are met, ensuring students feel safe and secure to explore, take risks, and learn without limits. *Program and grades offered vary by campus.
