JUNIOR KINDER PROGRAM: Children must be four by March 1st, 2017

This program offers the same great aspects of the Junior kinder program above along with the benefits of the SPANISH LANGUAGE Immersion Program—Silverado Location

Your child does not have to be continuing on in the Spanish Immersion elementary system to benefit from the Spanish Immersion Preschool experience.

This specific program’s  higher level of academic activities include focus on learning a second language, reading readiness; letter recognition, letter sounds, sight words and handwriting, as well as incorporating math, science and art and music throughout the day. The language is introduced naturally and increased throughout the year as the children's understanding increases. Kindergartens are changing more and more each year; their expectations are increasing as to what a child should know before beginning school.  The preschool Spanish Immersion program experience readies a child for the structure of a formal school setting, being open and ready to learning new things and to the Kindergarten experience (in Spanish or English); Junior Kindergarten does this too, as well as setting a child up for success specifically in Kindergarten and is planned with this in mind.  It is planned to assist children in flourishing academically and socially. The children are confident when they enter Kindergarten. Concepts they are learning are already familiar to them.  They are reinforcements of what they are already beginning to feel certain about. Children who are confident socially and academically become more willing to take healthy risks in the classroom setting.

SPANISH Immersion Preschool (3 & 4 Year olds)

Program runs each year if interest warrants starting a session. Children do not need to do the three-year old Spanish Immersion program to continue on in the Junior Kindergarten Spanish Immersion. Children may join the Junior Kinder Spanish immersion directly from the English three-year old preschool or even without previous preschool experience. The three/four-year old Spanish Immersion Preschool includes all of the great components of our English preschool classroom with the added bonus of learning a second language.
