Exploration Station’s preschool program runs Monday–Friday, 8:30–2:00. Our class is a mixed age group with 13 students ages 2.9–5 years and is led by two certified and experienced preschool teachers. 

​

Our indoor and outdoor classrooms are enriched with various science-themed activities and include many ways for students to explore engineering and building. Our bright, colorful space offers endless opportunities for creative, imaginative play, encouraging curiosity, innovative thinking, and problem-solving. These skills are essential for developing brains and serve as a solid foundation for building blocks of learning. We also focus on acquiring positive social skills with an introduction to academics, which both come naturally in our education-infused environment. 

​

Students participate in a structured daily schedule that includes free choice time, circle, directed learning, outdoor play, storytime, snacks, and lunch daily. We center many of our themes around the seasons and focus much of our work on science and art.

​

Throughout the week, students go on several field trips around the island. We visit many parks, forests, playgrounds, and sometimes local community centers like the Community Music School.
