Maple Lawn Preschool

Our Philosophy

At Maple Lawn Preschool, we strive to nurture your children by providing opportunities to strengthen their self-esteem, as well as develop positive interactions with children of different abilities, ages and social-economic backgrounds. By taking part in our preschool program, your children will gain the skills necessary to prepare them as active participants in life-long learning.

Creative and constructive learning activities nourish children’s imaginations and physical well-being, while fostering social harmony and stimulating healthy play. Our curriculum is literacy based and helps to enhance your child’s learning. Circle time, story telling, and creative play develop listening skills, memory, and strengthen the imagination. Songs, finger plays, and stories cultivate an appreciation for language. Counting games and rhythmic activities provide a foundation for mathematics. Coloring, painting, cutting with scissors, and finger play develop fine motor skills. Large motor skills are developed through indoor and outdoor play, as well as group activities.

OUR MISSION:
We promote healthy living through recreation experiences and serve as stewards of Albany’s public parks and facilities.
