Children attend class for three hours per day, five days a week. State Preschool meets the needs of young children by providing a curriculum that is developmentally appropriate and academically enriched. Activities reflect the culture of ethnic groups in the community. Families are encouraged to share their traditions with the class. Preschools are structured to prepare children for kindergarten with preparation for success in reading, writing and math.
Students receive a daily snack along with integrated lessons.
State Preschool, along with Elk Grove's other preschools, focuses on preparing children for kindergarten and assuring that they will be ready to read in first grade. For the 2000-2001 preschool program year, State Preschool classes will be held at Charles Mack and Samuel Kennedy Elementary Schools.
