Fives

The Pre-K Five program at St. Mark’s Preschool is designed for children turning five between July and December. It is an in-between step for children who have completed a Fours program but are not quite ready for kindergarten. Our curriculum is designed following the “Project Approach”. Learn more about the Pre-K Fives curriculum here.  The Head Teacher is Mrs. Wilderman, a former elementary teacher who holds a Master’s degree with a specialty in reading. Along with Assistant Teacher Mrs. Strazsky, who also hold a Master’s degree in Education, The Pre-K Fives provide a daily schedule that balances exploration of concepts, kindergarten readiness, and creativity along with time to play both indoors and out.

Hours:
Monday/Wednesday 9:00am-1:55pm

Tuesday/Thursday/Friday 9:00am-12:00pm (optional extended day until 1:55pm on Thursdays)

Extra Enrichment Opportunities:
St. Mark's Preschool hosts many resources to provide extra enrichment following school dismissal, eliminating the need for an additional drop-off. These have included Soccer on the Great Lawn and Golf in Morrill Hall. The classes offered change according to the interests of the children and parents. Classes are on Tuesdays from 12:00-1:00pm.
