Pilgrim Preschool is a secular, non-profit, part-day early childhood education program for children ages 3 through 5 years old. Occupying only a few hours of a child’s week, preschool education is planned as a supplement to a child’s home experience—not as a substitute for it. The objective of our program is the development of the whole child: emotionally, physically, socially, and cognitively. Pilgrim Preschool is conducted in a relaxed and loving atmosphere, which encourages children to participate and interact in group activities as well as independent play. Days are planned around themes. Materials used for teaching invite children to learn through multisensory exploration. Children are also encouraged to ask questions, share observations and ideas and find joy through learning. Pilgrim Preschool stresses the importance of active learning and the development of the child through positive social/emotional experiences.
