Kilmer Pre-school in Colorado Springs, CO

Pre K Description

The Lewis-Palmer School District Early Childhood Preschool Program is designed to provide
enriching opportunities to meet the needs of 3 to 5 year-old children. The mission is to assist all
children and their families in strengthening their childs development. This is done through the
preschool learning goals, parent conferences, and parent workshops.
The Preschool Program consists of small and large group activities, which facilitate development
in language, fine and gross motor skills, reading and math readiness concepts, and social skills.
There is a balance of child-directed and teacher directed activities that are included throughout
the day. Preschool Directors coordinate the days activities ensuring that all areas of
development are addressed.
The Preschool implements a program in which the child plans and carries out activities at a
center of his/her choice. These centers change on a weekly basis and may include blocks, a
carpentry shop, dramatic play area, science, office area, sand/water table, Duplo center, pegboard
and art center, and listening or story area. Developmentally, play is a vital component of the
program. Play facilitates problem solving skills, social interaction and communication skills,
and increases cognitive growth.
The family/parent-oriented philosophy is an integral part of the Preschool Program.
Communication is facilitated through monthly activity calendars, monthly newsletters,
conferences, written logs, parent workshops, staffing for students with disabilities, and other
special events throughout the school year. Parents are encouraged to become actively engaged in
their childs learning by assisting during the day or observing in the classroom.
