The Pre-K Program at Mind-Builders

Our vision is to create life-long learners and to involve the family as a partner in their child's development.  Our goal is that a child in our program will be a happy learner, independent, developmentally competent and aware of the world they live in. 

We use a range of teaching approaches in the learning environment, from child-initiated play to teacher-directed instruction, offering children opportunities to investigate the world around them and to learn through purposeful play through arts – music, dance, drawing, and painting to foster creativity and a love of learning. 

There is no cost for PRE-K.
