Preschool Program

I love that my daughter is learning from LHS students; both preschoolers and high schoolers learning together really lends a community feel to this program!Melissa Karnstedt

The Little Cats Preschool program is unique in that it is run by our high school students. This is a learning experience for both the high school and preschool students. The high school students are responsible for creating and running learning centers and circle time activities. The program is play-based and fairly unstructured. This allows for preschoolers to select preferred activities and learn through play in those activities. 

Who Can Attend?

  • Open to any children ages 3-5.
  • Children must turn 3 before the start of the program.
  • Children must also be potty trained. 

We're so excited to welcome students to the preschool room at Libertyville High School!

Typical Daily Activities

Within the time the preschoolers are here they will have a morning meeting (circle time) where teachers lead them in singing songs and storytelling.

There is also a significant time for preschoolers to play in our learning centers. These include spaces with materials focused on art, sensory, make-believe play, science & math concepts, construction, and reading.

Finally, we will spend some time in the gym or an outdoor space to work on developing large muscle movements. Snacks will also be provided.
