Our preschool is offered to all children in the Tekamah-Herman school district who are 4 years old by July 31. Children may attend a morning or afternoon session four half days each week.Children explore a risk-free hands-on environment where they are encouraged to explore and learn at their own rate. All activities and practices support and facilitate the children to grow cognitively, socially, physically and emotionally. The environment encourages children in their emerging language, literacy and math skills, and science, music and art awareness through active exploration,hands-on learning activities, a balance between individual and group activities, centers that change at least once a month, and supportive and loving teachers with expertise in early childhood education. |
