Pre-Kindergarten

Killington Elementary School   Prekindergarten Program   

Hours: ​ Monday-Friday, 8:00-3:00.  Ages: ​3 and 4 year olds, and 5 year olds not yet eligible to enroll in Kindergarten

The Killington Pre-K is led by Jodi Schneider with assistance from Stephanie Firstbrook. The program serves the families of young children ages 3 to 5. Our day includes a variety of rich,  developmentally-appropriate learning opportunities aligned with the Vermont Early Learning Standards. Students participate in imaginative play, literacy and math centers, whole group and individual activities, Forest Friday and lots of outdoor play. We believe in embracing each child's learning styles and interests and finding ways to keep them engaged in their learning while enriching their play experiences. 

Our Pre-K program is grounded in  research around early childhood education; we believe students benefit from  consistent routines, continuity of curriculum and learning activities, and a strong  classroom community. Our early childhood educators are best able to provide a  vibrant and meaningful learning environment when they can plan directly for a  regular group of students. To this end, we will not be enrolling students on a  drop-in basis or only on certain days.
