Preschool

We offer a safe and nurturing environment where all preschoolers can succeed.

Philosophy & Program Goals

It is the philosophy of the Clinton County R-III Early Childhood program that children be encouraged to learn and grow through a foundation of developmentally appropriate experiences where all children can succeed in a safe and nurturing environment. 

We believe that each child is a unique individual and that all children can learn. Our preschool program provides inclusive settings that recognize children's varied abilities, interests, needs, and learning styles. 

We recognize that parents are the child's first teachers. Children learn best when parents are involved in their educational program. The primary bridge between home and school is the involvement of family and community. 

We will enhance each child’s cognitive, creative, fine motor, gross motor, social, and emotional skills through learning, imagination, and exploration. Each child will be treated as a special individual and will be taught to respect others.  Your child will be taught how to play together as a group. We will encourage your child not to be afraid, but rather to be curious and explore the different areas of life.  He/she will be encouraged to strive toward his/her goals and dreams.

Our goal at Clinton County R-III Early Childhood Program is to teach your children (child) the necessary skills in life.  We want them to feel more independent, which builds self-esteem.  In addition to their self-help skills, we want to prepare them for the next level of learning and develop their social skills.  We want them to “Believe in Your Dreams” and enjoy being a child.
