Messiah Preschool’s Extended-Day Pre-Kindergarten Class is an innovative option for students preparing for full-day kindergarten. The class provides four hours of school time—and includes a lunch period with the teachers. This unique classroom experience serves as an excellent transitional option. It also provides an additional option for parents having to decide where to place their "young" 5-year-old students.

  • Creative opportunities through exploratory center play and art.
  • Field Trips and cooking are also a part of the class experience.
  • Class ratio is 2 adults and 14 children per classroom.
