Why Stay At The Little Schoolhouse?

Considerations for Continued Enrollment

During your child’s formative pre-school years you want the best possible environment. The Little Schoolhouse offers you and your child…

  • Reasonable class size.
  • During your child pre-school year you want the best
  • Excellent student-teacher ratio.
  • Dedicated and caring staff.
  • Interactive “hands-on” approach to learning with attention to reading and writing preparedness.
  • Teachers who are attentive to the children’s social and emotional development.
  • Our student body is enough of a peer group to foster long lasting friendships without the overwhelming feature of a large class at a large school.
  • Small classes allow teachers to give additional one-on-one attention to your child.
  • Well-rounded curriculum including developmentally appropriate programs in: Physical Education, Music, Spanish, Literature, Science, Art Appreciation, and Social Studies.

Be sure to speak with any teachers about curriculum and life at school.  We are happy to show and tell you about the fun we have while learning.

Alas, after moving to another school before completion, many parents have often come back to us saying: “We should have stayed for another year…”

We realize that parents have a choice of schools here in Nassau and appreciate your decision to enroll your child at our school for consecutive years.’s

Yes, you can!  It is as easy as calculating the pro-rated difference up to the next program option.  For example, your child, enrolled in the 3-Mornings program, has settled in easily and now wants to come to school every day.  Simply tell Ms. Kara and she will calculate the difference.  However, if you are dialing back off an enrollment program you have paid for credit will be issued toward the next term’s payment. School fees are not refundable.

We understand that life is busy!  Travel opportunities in business and with the family will happen.  In fact, we recognize the special learning value of traveling together as a family, creating precious memories that shape your lifetime.  A reasonable balance of missed school days due to travel is recommended so as not to upset the continuum of curriculum in best classroom teaching practices.

Parents pack and send   a nutritious snack and lunch for their child everyday. Morning snack is at 9:45  and lunch is at 11:45.   The teachers are assisting children during the lunch period and offering encouragement for increased self-help skills.  We can give a quick warm-up to foods in microwave-safe containers.   

Most of our youngest starting students will have their second birthday during the school year!  Parents anticipate the onset of many developmental milestones during this year including independence in the bathroom.  The teachers are working individually with the children to attain this goal.  Toileting is a scheduled routine activity in the preschool morning.  Parents provide necessary items including pull-ups, wipes, and a change of clothing.  Each child has a personal drawer in the bathroom that teacher’s access for individual supplies.  Significant care and dedication is given to this essential aspect of development.  Parents and teachers combine compassionate efforts to make the final steps towards the great achievement of independence in the bathroom!
