Welcome to Our School

  • HOmePage Photo Strip  

    Our school is a welcoming, hands-on, group of preschool children and their families. 
    We follow the Reggio Emilia approach, which allows children to express themselves in their own unique way within varied activities. 
     
     

    The Reggio Emilia approach is derived from the schools of Reggio Emilia, Italy where they have become internationally known and studied by educators from all over the world.  Loris Malaguzzi, the first teacher and founder of these schools, believed that

     
      “A school needs to be a place for all children,
    not based on the idea that they’re all the same,
    but that they are all different.”

    Our teachers are life-long learners with a commitment to expand their understanding of children and their skill in the observation of children.  They spend time observing individual children involved in different activities to discover the child’s individual learning style and to then create an environment that will help the children grow in their higher-level thinking skills.

     

    We welcome you to explore our school and see the uniqueness and value of a Reggio Emilia approach and the Oak Park Neighborhood Preschool program.  Please contact the school for an appointment to tour the school or gather more information.
