[vc_row][vc_column][stm_title title_margin_b=”29px” title=”Programs”][/stm_title][vc_column_text]LCDS Preschool & Kindergarten offers a play based, language rich, structured classroom routine, focusing on Kindergarten readiness two to five days per week either in the morning or afternoon. Preschool children benefit from the early exposure to the Kindergarten curriculum concepts and the classroom setting.
Morning class:
Kindergarten: 8:45am – 11:45pm
Preschool: 9:15am – 12:00pm
Afternoon class:
Kindergarten: 12:45pm – 3:45pm
Preschool: 1:00pm – 3:45pm
Half-Day Program – General Guidelines
Our classroom is an integrated classroom where the 3, 4 and 5 year old children attend together in the same classroom. Each daily class has a maximum number of 17 students /class /day.
Kindergarten and Jr. Kindergarten numbers are limited to 6 students/class (If there is a demand for more Kindergarten or Jr. Kindergarten spots the limit may change without notice); if there are open Kindergarten spots left in September, those spots will be opened for preschool registrations.
For 3 year old children, 2 days per week are recommended.
For 4 year old children, 2-3 days per week are recommended.
Junior Kindergarten children will attend 4 or 5 days per week (See Junior Kindergarten for details).
Kindergarten children attend 5 days per week, unless an alternative path has been approved by the teacher and parent.
**Parents of preschool children who would like their child to attend extra days may submit their request with their child’s registration; extra days are subject to teacher and board approval.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row full_width=”stretch_row” css=”.vc_custom_1476169414986{padding-top: 45px !important;background-color: #fff9f2 !important;}”][vc_column width=”1/2″][stm_icon_box view_style=”style-5″ icon_color=”custom” title_color=”custom” descr_color=”custom” image_enable=”true” title=”Preschool” descr=”Our Preschool Curriculum places a strong importance on cultivating self-identity through nurturing guidance and exploration.” descr_color_custom=”#595959″ title_small=”(3 – 4 years)” icon_color_custom=”#ff6682″ title_color_custom=”#ff6682″ img_single_id=”5457″ title_link=”url:https%3A%2F%2Flcdskids.websitepro.hosting%2Fpreschool%2F” icon_fontawesome=”stm-icon stm-icon-car-kinder” icon_size=”33px” descr_margin_t=”18px”][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/2″][stm_icon_box view_style=”style-5″ icon_color=”custom” title_color=”custom” descr_color=”custom” image_enable=”true” title=”Junior Kindergarten” descr=”Our Junior Kindergarten Program is designed so that the students spend their days participating in a structured, yet fun curriculum.” img_single_id=”5456″ descr_color_custom=”#595959″ title_small=”(4 – 5 years)” icon_color_custom=”#bd66ff” title_color_custom=”#bd66ff” title_link=”url:https%3A%2F%2Flcdskids.websitepro.hosting%2Fjunior-kindergarten%2F” icon_fontawesome=”stm-icon stm-icon-varied” icon_size=”40px” descr_margin_t=”18px”][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row full_width=”stretch_row” css=”.vc_custom_1475470424749{background-color: #fff9f2 !important;}”][vc_column width=”1/2″ css=”.vc_custom_1475476444267{padding-top: 30px !important;}”][stm_icon_box view_style=”style-5″ icon_color=”custom” title_color=”custom” descr_color=”custom” image_enable=”true” title=”Kindergarten” descr=”Kindergarten is an exciting and important time for children.
