Landmark Preschool

Landmark Preschool - Come Grow With Us! from Ridgefield Academy .

Over 40 years of experience has taught us that children love to learn! Our program engages and inspires children while encouraging them to explore new concepts, using teaching methods designed for young children. Our goal is a happy, well-adjusted child and we dedicate ourselves to helping each child discover his or her intrinsic talents in a creative, stimulating and nurturing environment.

The Ridgefield campus, situated on 42 rolling acres, offers families outstanding teachers, superb facilities, and a newly renovated preschool wing. We believe that the most important years for developing skills and confidence takes place during the preschool and elementary school years, and it all starts with our nurturing and engaging Landmark Preschool program. We offer flexible schedules for children ages 1 - 5 and a comprehensive program for students up to grade 8 through our affiliate school, Ridgefield Academy.

Our recently renovated preschool classrooms have been designed especially for children under the age of five in mind. Classrooms are spacious, open and full of natural light. A state of the art kitchen lab has been installed to offer students opportunities to learn math and science skills through cooking lessons, and a multi-purpose room allows students to enjoy gardening and art activities as well as drama and music instruction.

Our program includes plenty of outdoor time as well as an age appropriate introduction to phonics, math, handwriting, and reading activities. Children also engage in specials such as music, art, gym, drama, cooking, science, library and French with our Specialist teachers. All of our classrooms are also equipped with Hatch SmartBoard TeachSmart systems to reinforce our monthly themes.

Extended Care is available starting at 7:30am and extending until 5:00pm for our Threes and Fours students. Students also have an opportunity to get involved in a number of enrichment clubs throughout the year.
