Preschool and Pre- K
Small Strides is a four star rated school through Nevada QRIS which means we far exceed the standards that are required from a Preschool setting in Washoe County.
At Small Strides, we follow the Nevada Pre-K standards. Once a child (or group of children) has mastered a skill, we move on to the more advanced Kindergarten standard. Our program is geared towards cognitive development while providing a fun, supportive, and safe environment for children to learn. Through our structured curriculum, children learn through fun experiences and monthly school wide themes.
Along with social skills, our Preschool and Pre-K programs focus on math, science, creative arts, and language arts. Children will practice pre-writing and writing skills as well as learn school readiness skills. Children will learn phonological awareness and learn sight words as we focus on pre-reading skills.
In our Preschool and Pre-K programs, learning experiences are divided into small group activities, large group activities, and free play.
