    Why Choose the Pre-K Academy?

    • Give your child the gift of discovery.

      Each day, the Pre-K Academy nurtures your child’s natural gifts and talents while your 3 or 4 year-old learns, plays and discovers. The Pre-K Academy is NOT a babysitting or day care service. The school and the lessons are uniquely designed for your 3 or 4 year-old’s curious mind, growing body and boundless energy.

      Your child will explore science, technology, engineering, art and math in dual language classrooms guided by teachers trained in early childhood education.

      Your child’s teacher and instructional assistant—both state certified—will nurture and guide using proven strategies and lessons designed to support the Texas Pre-Kindergarten Guidelines.
