MSD Preschool Program Mission Statement

Our preschool program is committed to fostering a nurturing, inclusive environment where every child is valued as an individual. In partnership with parents as the child’s first teacher, we embrace mixed-age classrooms, allowing for collaborative learning and peer support. We provide specialized support for dual language learners, multilingual families, and children with unique needs, offering culturally responsive strategies to promote growth and understanding. By tailoring education to each child’s needs, we empower families to actively engage in and support their child's learning journey. Together, we cultivate a foundation for lifelong learning, respect, and community.

 

We Provide......

-Free preschool experience for over 650 students

-Community supports for all families

-12 schools in the community
