In our "Fox" pre-kindergarten classroom, designed for children aged 48 months to 5 years, we offer an advanced curriculum focused on building a strong academic foundation. Our program emphasizes developing critical thinking, problem-solving, and essential social skills, preparing children for a successful transition to kindergarten.

Our Mission & Approach
Our mission is to provide a nurturing, inclusive environment where children actively construct knowledge through hands-on exploration, imaginative play, and developmentally appropriate activities. We inspire to cultivate independence and self-discipline, spark creativity and collaboration, and encourage joyful discovery via play-based learning.
Joyful Journeys combines elements of Creative Curriculum, Montessori, and Learning through Play to provide a holistic approach to early learning and preschool. We believe children thrive in an environment that fosters curiosity, independence, and joy while supporting their cognitive, social, and emotional growth.
