The Primary Academy - Daycare & Preschool

How important is preschool? There are many advantages to having your child in a preschool program. A quality preschool program offers a foundation that will help children be successful when formal schooling begins.

The chance to interact with other children is another benefit of preschool. Interacting with other children means learning how to wait, how to take turns, and how to listen. Young children learn social skills when they interact with other children. These social skills are critical to a developing personality.

At The Primary Academy your child will listen to stories and songs which are building blocks needed to grasp phonics and reading skills when it is developmentally appropriate. Play is not just play, it is learning too. As young children play with water, sand, and containers they form a foundation for understanding basic math concepts. Matching, sequencing, and one-to-one correspondence are all activities that are vital skills to help children prepare for academics. Watching other children pursue a challenging task is also helpful. The presence of peers and a wide variety of educational materials are two additioanl reasons why a preschool is so important.

The Primary Academy is dedicated to helping your child develop the strong academic background needed for a lifetime of learning.
