Bilingual Preschool That Builds
Confidence And Independence

Preschoolers are ready to take on more responsibility and more complex thinking. Our Beaverton preschool program is intentionally designed to help them grow into confident, capable learners.

We support children as they:

Practice using words to solve conflicts and express feelings
Develop early reading and writing readiness skills
Strengthen number sense, patterns, and problem solving
Build friendships and learn empathy
Participate in bilingual songs, stories, and conversations
Take care of their belongings and classroom materials
Make age appropriate choices and see themselves as capable

Our preschoolers practice recognizing letters, participating in group learning, following classroom routines, asking questions, and taking responsibility for simple tasks. These everyday habits help children feel prepared for a successful transition into kindergarten.

A Preschool that Honors
Your Family's Values

We collaborate with you on:

Our goal is to work alongside you, not in place of you. We keep you informed and involved so you always know what your child is learning and how they are growing.

What Our Preschool Looks Like Each Day

Our preschool schedule is consistent and predictable, while leaving plenty of room for exploration and joy. Children know what to expect and feel secure, which helps them learn more easily.

A typical day in our Beaverton preschool program includes:

Morning Arrival and Independent Play

Children ease into the day with open ended centers like blocks, dramatic play, books, and table activities.

Circle Time And Bilingual Group Learning

The class gathers to greet each other, sing songs, review the calendar, talk about the weather, and introduce the day’s theme in both English and Spanish.

Small Group Learning And Centers

Teachers lead small group activities focused on literacy, math, early writing, science, and social skills, while other children explore learning centers at their level.

Creative Projects And Hands On Learning

Art, sensory bins, simple experiments, and cooking style activities help children learn through doing, not just listening.

Quiet Time And Rest

After lunch, children enjoy rest time with calming music and stories. Non nappers are given quiet activities so everyone has a chance to reset.

Afternoon Enrichment And Closing Routines

The day ends with more centers, music, movement, and teacher led activities that reinforce the day’s learning in fun, age appropriate ways.
