Little Learners Preschool

We are still accepting registrations for Summer 2023 and School Year 2023-2024. 

About the Program

Little Learners is a state-licensed, half-day preschool program for children ages 3 to 5 years old. Little Learners is housed at the Wheat Ridge Recreation Center in the Children's Pavilion and operates in the afternoons from 1:10 until 4:10 p.m. 

You have the choice of enrolling in either 2 or 3 days per week based on your child’s needs.

The program runs concurrently with the Jefferson County School District calendar and is closed on school holidays. In addition to the 9-month school year program, September through May, we also offer a summer program, June through August.

Curriculum

Our comprehensive curriculum has been carefully crafted by professionals to ensure that your child will receive a rich, rewarding, and fun preschool experience. Your child will be introduced to a structured classroom environment as well as unstructured playtime. Exciting weekly themes are developed and used to teach gross and fine motor skills, critical thinking and problem solving skills, and social interaction. Your child will learn shapes, colors, numbers and more through a variety of fun activities including arts and crafts, games, science projects, and fitness and wellness activities.

Teachers

Your child will be taught by teachers who are caring, compassionate and enjoy children. Our teachers are required to have an Early Childhood Education (ECE) with completed coursework in Early Child Development, as well as maintain current infant/child/adult First Aid and CPR/AED certifications.

Potty Training Requirement

If your child is not potty trained, you must be present in the building as staff cannot provide personal care.
