The Plano Family YMCA Preschool is a year-round program. From September through May, we follow the academic curriculum, which turns into a summer camp from June through July.
We accept children ages 2-5 and have three classrooms available: toddler (2-3 years old), Preschool (3-4 years old), and pre-kindergarten (4-5 years old). Those in the Preschool and pre-kindergarten classes should be potty trained before enrolling.
We aim to help students become well-rounded individuals by focusing on social-emotional learning and academics. We teach children to use words, express their feelings, and interact with others. In addition, we provide progress reports every six weeks during the school year so parents can track student advancements.
Each class is designed to create a sound foundation for the upcoming year. The Toddler class will most emphasize social-emotional learning and be more play-based. The Preschool class will be introduced to phonetic awareness, numbers, shapes, and more. Enrolling in both years sets students to excel in the Prekindergarten class, where children will leave confident and ready for Kindergarten.
Every day will have circle time, center time, lesson, recess, snack and lunch, and a special. Specials include sign language, music, P.E., and more. Snacks and lunches are included at no additional cost.
