Privately Owned Preschools Involve Parents

Privately Owned Preschools Involve Parents
By The Academy|

Privately owned preschools know that engaging in your child’s learning plays a crucial role in a child’s early development and learning experiences. The Academy is an example of a privately owned preschool with specific programs for the whole family. Our seasonal programs such as “Fall is for Your Family,” “Fitness Fanatics,” and “Green Our Scene” are all programs that involve the whole family.

But in addition to participating in structured programs, here are some engaging ideas for parents to become involved.

Stay Informed

Keep up with daycare newsletters or bulletins to be aware of upcoming activities or needs. Being informed allows you to engage appropriately, whether it’s bringing supplies for a craft project or inviting your child’s friends to a group playdate.

Share Your Skills

Privately owned preschools - The AcademyParents often possess unique skills or hobbies that could enrich daycare activities. Whether it’s crafting, cooking, or storytelling, consider offering to lead a session or share your expertise.

For example, if you’re a musician, volunteer for a music day, or if you love gardening, propose planting a small flower bed with the children. Sharing your talents encourages learning through hands-on experiences.

Volunteer for Events

Most daycares regularly host events such as holiday parties, picnics, craft days, or field trips. Volunteer to help with these activities.

Your participation not only supports staff but also provides an opportunity to interact with your child and their friends. Engaging in fun group activities reinforces the sense of community and allows you to observe your child’s interactions in a social setting.

Foster Open Communication:

Encourage your child to talk about their day and what they’ve learned. This practice not only strengthens your bond but also gives you insights into how you can enrich their experiences further.

Helpful Answers for Families Choosing The Academy

These FAQs share clear details on enrollment, daily routines, learning programs, safety, and what to expect once your child begins at The Academy.

What ages do you accept?

The Academy offers early learning programs designed for children from infancy through Pre-K. Each classroom is built around age-appropriate routines, developmental milestones, and learning goals that support growth at every stage. Children receive the structure they need to feel secure while still having the freedom to explore and learn through play, hands-on activities, and teacher-guided instruction.

We use the Frog Street curriculum to provide consistent learning across classrooms and age groups. This curriculum supports early literacy, communication, motor development, and social-emotional skills through structured themes and purposeful activities. Our teachers follow curriculum-based lesson plans while also adapting the day to each classroom’s pace, helping children stay engaged and supported as they make meaningful progress.

Yes. Enrichment programs are included in tuition and offered throughout the week. These sessions add variety and excitement to a child’s routine by introducing creative activities, movement, cultural exploration, and age-appropriate science experiences. Enrichment helps children build confidence, discover new interests, and stay motivated by adding new learning experiences beyond the core classroom schedule.

Strong parent communication is a key part of a successful childcare experience. Families receive updates through our communication system, which may include daily reports, photos, and important notes about meals, naps, or classroom moments. Our team aims to keep families informed, reduce surprises, and create consistent support between home and school throughout the year.

Safety is a top priority at every Academy location. Our centers follow structured protocols for drop-off and pickup, classroom supervision, and daily accountability. Staff are trained to maintain safe routines and consistent classroom expectations while supporting children in a calm environment. During a tour, families can learn more about entry procedures, classroom organization, and how we prioritize safety every day.

The easiest way to schedule a tour is by submitting the tour request form on our website. Once we receive your information, a team member will follow up to confirm availability, answer initial questions, and help you choose the best program for your child’s age.

Before your child starts, our team will share a simple list of items based on your child’s classroom and age group. Most families bring labeled supplies such as extra clothing, diapers or pull-ups if needed, wipes, and any approved comfort items. Teachers will also guide you through routines for drop-off, communication updates, and what to expect during your child’s first few days.
