Our Philosophy

Our ABC-123 Preschool is guided by the philosophy of learning through play. Play is where the child learns how to share, create, cooperate, interact, and solve problems. The preschool environment will encourage acceptance and growth of each child. Support for all children will be provided by loving and knowledgeable staff in a collaborative working partnership with the family, park district, and school district.

Your child will enjoy painting, singing, cooking, playing games, listening to stories, and moving to music.

Through these fun activities, children practice self-control, build coordination, and learn how to work and play well with others.

Our Pre-K curriculum includes Jollyphonics. Students in Pre-K will learn letter names and sounds through songs, activities, stories, and movements. This multi-sensory approach to learning will help give students the foundation they need before entering kindergarten. Along with learning letters and sounds, students will be introduced to shapes, numbers, and other math concepts.
