The mission of York Avenue Preschool is to provide children from diverse backgrounds with a comprehensive traditional early childhood education which integrates art, music, physical education and language, in a safe, warm environment. The curriculum is developmental and is based on the guidelines of the National Association for the Education of Young Children (NAEYC), and standards of the New York State Department of Education.Our goal is to reach each child and work with them towards their "next steps". Every child is unique in their skill development and our exceptional teachers create a classroom environment that develops a love of learning and self confidence in each child.York Avenue welcomes our families to be partners in learning. We accept the whole family, not just the child! Parents are involved in school functions, classroom celebrations, parent teacher conferences and Parent Association sponsored meetings and fundraisers. |
