I am looking for recommendations for a good priced preschool for my 4 year old boy.It doesn't matter if it is in-home or not. Preferably something that has a well rounded jump-start curriculum for kindergarten. I forgot to mention we are in Surprse on the West side of the valley.
I guess it depends on where you are located. I know a great one at around 43rd and Pinnacle Peak. But if you are in Gilbert or something, that wouldn't work, lol.
Where do you live? That will help people's recommendations.
There is a great preschool in NW peoria. It has a 7:1 ratio and is an academic preschool.The kids come out knowing all their letters and sounds and it even goes into beginning phonics with those who are ready. It is a half day program. The staff is very caring and great with the kids. There is usually a waiting list so I would call ahead. It is called Cross of Glory Preschool. The Phone number is ###-###-#### and the Web site is www.crossofglory.org I hope you find a great place for your son. Their first school experience is such an important one!
If I was still staying in The Phoenix area, I'd send my daughter to Bambini preschool. They have a language immersion program. Mandarin and Spanish. Full or part time. Reputed to be comparably priced with other preschools. Recently remodeled and reopened.
The gift of a foreign language is beyond compare, in my estimation.
PS: They hope to become a charter school to continue the language program into the early grades.
I know of an excellent preschool in the surprise area. It is near waddel and citrus. Its $30 registration fee and $85.00 a month for 2 days a week 2 and 1/2 hours a time. Or 120 a month for 3 days a week 2 and 1/2 hours a time. Let me know if you would like more info.
I am fond of Primrose Schools the Goodyear Campus is wonderful with a qualified director and adults as teachers. Their curriculum has developmental, cognitive and social components. I wish we lived closer, my kids would have gone there. Best, L. www.lynnekenney.com
I highly recommend Northwest Christian Preschool. http://www.nwccschool.org/earlyed.html. They are on 43rd Ave. just south of Bell Rd. Both my kids went there each for 2 years. If you aide twice a month in the classroom they discount the tuition $25 a month. Both my children loved going there and they were well prepared to start elementary school. It was a wonderful experience for all.
