Prep-Explorers
(Preschoolers)
Our
preschool program begins once our children make the transition from the toddler classrooms. The title of the class,
Prep-Explorers says it all. Research shows that children learn best through real experiences. Our teachers, curriculum
and philosophy provide many opportunities for hands on, meaningful learning experiences.
Our preschool classes have an abundance of learning opportunities
to offer expanding young minds. Our teachers empower the children with choices and challenges throughout
the day, which provide them with the opportunity for exploration and hands on learning. Children are offered active
learning centers to spark their interest and creativity. The art, music, science, sensory, dramatic play, block, writing,
library, manipulative and quiet centers all work together to provide a play-like learning ennvironment where the children
can learn through active exploration!
GA Pre-K Program
(Lottery Funded)
North
Point Prep has two lottery funded Pre-Kindergarten classrooms that have 20 children each. These Pre-K programs are
structured to promote Kindergarten readiness. North Point Prep has chosen the state accepted "Creative Curriculum"
to use in the Pre-K classrooms. For more information on Georgia Pre-K, and to find out more about the Creative
Curriculum please see this website www.decal.state.ga.us.
Private Pre-K Program
(Privately Funded)
North
Point Prep is excited to introduce a Private Pre-K program to our list of wonderful programs. The Private Pre-K program
will offer the Creative Curriculum, and will focus on preparing children for Georgia Pre-K or Kindergarten. The age
guidelines for Private Pre-K enrollment state that children must turn four between June 1st and December 31st of the
current school year. The Private Pre-K's goals and objectives are hand in hand with that of the Georgia Pre-K.
Using these goals and objectives will ensure that children are ready for Kindergarten or Georgia Pre-K upon leaving the Private
program.

in the lottery funded Georgia Pre-K program. Spaces will be given to eligible children currently enrolled at North Point Prep. The
