Welcome to Our Preschool Program
Our Mission
The mission of the Kearny School District Preschool Program is to provide a high-quality, safe, and nurturing learning environment for all students. We focus on the whole child and ensure a developmentally appropriate program that includes social-emotional, physical, and cognitive development. Our preschool program applies best practices in early learning to help students become life-long learners. Through a play-based learning environment, our preschool students develop individuality, creativity, confidence, and resilience. Our program strives to create partnerships with families and encourages a love of learning and success for all students.
Monthly Lunch and Learn Virtual Parent Workshop
We invite our Preschool families to join our PIRS and CPIS team members during their lunch hour for an informative discussion focusing on a different topic each month!
Please check here each month for dates and topics.
