What makes us unique…
Established and Proven
Founded in 2007, our program has stood the test of time and continues to deliver meaningful, measurable growth for children.
Challenging, Research-Driven Curriculum
Our curriculum integrates proven instructional programs to support diverse learning styles, including Zoophonics, Handwriting Without Tears, Hooked on Phonics, Core Knowledge, Heggerty Phonemic Awareness, and Utah’s Early Childhood Core Standards. This layered approach ensures depth, structure, and meaningful kindergarten readiness.
Small Class Sizes, Individual Attention
With a 12:1 student-to-teacher ratio and an extra assistant teacher on site, children receive personalized instruction, meaningful interaction, small group learning, and carefully adjusted support or challenge.
Highly Qualified Teachers
Our faculty is passionate, skilled, and continually pursues professional growth through advanced training, certifications, and ongoing education. We believe strong educators build strong foundations.
Parent Partnership
We prioritize the partnership between parents and teachers. Ongoing communication ensures families stay informed and involved in their child’s development. Families receive weekly newsletters, student evaluations, and attend parent–teacher conferences. Together, we support your child’s growth every step of the way.
Consistent Weekly Communication
Each Friday, families receive an email outlining weekly themes and topic focus, books we are reading, plus ideas for extending learning at home. A full yearly calendar is always available on our “Parent Tools” page.
Hands-On Science
Weekly experiments make science engaging and exciting. Preschoolers explore the “how” and “why” of the world around them — fostering curiosity and inquisitive thinking.
Strong Emphasis on Literacy
We are passionate about building early language and literacy foundations. Our literacy focus includes weekly “word of the week” and vocabulary words, participation in the Scholastic Books program, encouragement of consistent at-home reading habits. Early literacy creates long-term academic confidence.
Enrichment & Celebrations
Show-and-Tell
Weekly show-and-tell aligns with the letter of the week, reinforcing literacy connections throughout the curriculum. (Not included for Barely 3s.)
Field Trips
All classes participate in two field trips per year.
Student Spotlight
Each child is spotlighted during their birthday month. Summer birthdays celebrate during their half-birthday month.
Progress Evaluations
Formal assessments are conducted three times per year — beginning, mid-year, and end-of-year — to track growth and progress.
Class Celebrations
Parents are invited to attend three in-class parties: Halloween, Christmas, and Valentines.
Expressions Dance Events
Preschoolers are invited to participate in all studio-wide events at Expressions Dance, including Halloween, Christmas, and the year-end recital in May.
Meaningful Graduation
Our end-of-year graduation program celebrates each child’s growth and accomplishments, helping them feel proud, capable, and excited for what comes next.
Friday Accelerated Program
Our Friday students receive additional specialized enrichment opportunities:
Lending Library: Students check out books weekly to encourage strong reading habits and academic responsibility at home.
Friday Field Trips: One to two community field trips may include visits to grocery stores, restaurants, libraries, fire stations, and other community locations.
Spanish Instruction: Friday circle time is conducted in Spanish. Students learn: Days of the week, months of the year, “Happy Birthday,” shapes, colors, numbers 1-20, weekly vocabulary words.
Small Group Reading Instruction: Students meet in small groups focused on reading skills aligned with kindergarten expectations.
Hands-On Fun: Friday students participate in cooking projects, science experiments, and sports activities.
The Result:
A structured yet joyful preschool experience that develops children academically, physically, socially, and emotionally — preparing them with confidence for kindergarten and beyond!
Experience a great place to start…
Our approach to preschool education starts with each student. Our goal is to develop the whole child, focusing on their physical, intellectual, creative, emotional, and social growth. With this in mind, we incorporate current research to provide the most complete and inclusive program possible. As such, we do not believe any one method to be an all-encompassing solution to early childhood education.
