Your child will only have one preschool experience. It’s important to get it right.

Preschool sets the foundation for Kindergarten and a lifetime of learning. It determines whether children love or simply tolerate school. It either honors or hinders their inner confidence. It sparks the academic, social, and emotional skills all future education builds upon.

Early childhood education is critical and at KLA Schools of Lakewood Ranch, education is extraordinary from the start because:

  • Learning begins on day one thru our educational program and curriculum grounded in the Reggio Emilia approach and decades of research.
  • A rigorous yet child-centered program that balances strong academics with respect for children's interests.
  • Children are viewed as competent, capable, and curious explorers, active participants in our emergent, innovative curriculum.
  • State-of-the-art learning spaces inspire creativity, stimulate curiosity, and empower every student.
  • Parents are valued partners, playing an essential role in each child’s growth and success.
  • Teachers are collaborators and guides, crafting unique learning experiences tailored to every child.
