The traditional half-day preschool sessions are the most popular choice. The morning preschool session meets Monday through Thursday from 8:30 a.m. until 10:50 a.m. and is taught by Marcia Osenga, Donna Myers and the senior Early Childhood students.\u00a0 This session is for 3 year-old children and young 4 year-olds.<\/p>\n

The afternoon session also meets Monday through Thursday from 12:00 noon until 2:20 p.m. and is taught by Mrs. Marcia Osenga, Mrs. Donna Myers and the junior Early Childhood students.\u00a0 This is a pre-kindergarten class for 4 year-olds and young 5 year-olds.<\/p>\n

The full day option is available from 8:30 a.m.-2:20 p.m., Monday through Thursday. This is a pre-kindergarten class for 4- and 5 year-olds.\u00a0 Preschoolers pack their lunch.<\/p>\n

Vantage Preschool provides developmentally appropriate activities for the total development of children ages 3-5 years old.<\/p>\n

The children experience many hands-on activities in language arts, science, math, kindergarten readiness, literature, and social skills.\u00a0 High school juniors and seniors who are preparing for a career in early childhood education work directly with the preschoolers by planning and conducting the lessons.\u00a0 A major benefit for the children who attend the Vantage Preschool is the very low staff-child ratio. There is usually one high school \u201cteacher\u201d to every one or two preschoolers, supervised by the directors. The high school students also receive additional training in first aid, CPR and common childhood illnesses.<\/p>\n
