Community

Fostering relationships that provide enriching opportunities to inspire young minds through literature, science, art & nature.

Children at Learning Tree are encouraged to

Learn by Doing

 

The curriculum is planned by the creative and dedicated professionals on staff. Emphasis is placed on the actual process rather than the finished product. Children experience the fun of learning by participating in activities designed to stimulate growth in a wide range of areas, including social, emotional and cognitive development and gross and fine motor skills. We understand that each child is unique and work with each child to prepare them for a lifetime of learning.

Parent Testimonials

“I absolutely love Learning Tree. My sons attended the 3’s and Pre-K. The teachers are fantastic! The classrooms are big and bright and it’s a wonderful environment for learning and playing. My sons loved going to school every day.  We were very happy to be a LTP family!”

“We’ve had many great experiences over the years at Learning Tree Preschool, our two older children attended and now our youngest son attends. The director and teachers are a very caring, supportive, educated staff, and they prepared our children well for kindergarten.  Our children love their classroom routines and learning new things. Crafts, songs, circle time, and playing on the new playground with their friends are just some of their favorites! Our family developed many friendships that extend outside our school days. We are so grateful for all the wonderful opportunities Learning Tree Preschool has given to our children and us parents!”

“When I set out to decide where to send my son to preschool, I found myself at Learning Tree Preschool and fell in love. My main objective was to find a nurturing home for my child to become accustomed to a learning and social environment. The quality of teaching was a welcome surprise. It was such a positive atmosphere and everyone I came in contact with was so welcoming and enthusiastic. I signed him up that day! My son will already be in Kindergarten next year, but we have now become a part of the Learning Tree Family. I can’t imagine a more enriching, loving place for my other two children to begin their learning experience.”

“Learning Tree has been the perfect fit for me and my family. The 2.5 program was exactly what I was looking for in terms of introducing my twins to a classroom environment. It was a joy to see the experience of learning new skills, making friends and having fun! Given this foundation and the warmth of the staff, their first days in their three-year-old and Pre-K programs were full of excitement and confidence.”

“My husband and I are both educators, so we were very involved in picking the perfect preschool for our son. We are thrilled that we chose Learning Tree. Our son has made such strides, both academically and socially. The programs that Learning Tree provides are just what a child needs to feel successful. Learning Tree has prepared our son quite well for kindergarten, and we are so thankful to the staff for all that they have done to make our time here a positive one.”
