Courtyard Early Learning Center is excited to share the last year before Kindergarten with those enrolled in our Kindergarten Readiness Program!

​

This year is full of daily assessment driven activities and experiences that allow the chlldren to learn science, math, reading, writing and much more through a play based curriculum.  Children will get to go on field trips, so they can learn about the world outside of the center, and develop many social and self help skills. 

​

Courtyard strives to provide a very FUN and EXPLORATORY environment for each kiddo, with the goal to let them be little while preparing for Kindergarten!

​

Tuition

​

$170.00 each Monday.

​

This tuition includes:

• Meals (3 a day)

• Before & After School Care if you select the full day

• All school supplies

• Less days closed versus public/parochial preschool.  (Check out our closings and compare)

It is our goal to provide more for the same tuition than our peer preschools.

Classroom Behavior

​

In order for the classroom to function with structure and proper time for the educational components, children enrolled in this program must be able to demonstrate the following abilities:

​

• Follow direction with minimal reminders

• Not demand more attention than other children in the room

• Actively participate in routines

• Show an interest in learning

• Handle the structure and routine of the classroom

• Regulate emotions in an age appropriate way

• Must be fully potty trained

​

Children will be allowed to be a child at Courtyard, however, to ensure that every child is getting the experience and education that parents are paying for, it is important that children enrolled in this particular class be able to handle the dynamics of the classroom. Children that are enrolled with Courtyard at a younger age have a stronger likeliness of being successful at growing their abilities in these areas.

​
