Lincoln Park Preschool and Lincoln Park Preparatory's Early Childhood Program's primary focus is the growth and well being of the child.
We provide this best by having a warm, open, nurturing atmosphere that is conducive to learning at an early age.
Our teachers are at the core of this philosophy. Our school is a place where children ages 2-6 can develop self-confidence and build a commitment to learning.
The children take part in discovery-based activities that are developmentally appropriate.
LPP provides a healthy balance between teacher-directed and child-directed activities, while limiting the amount of time spent in a large group.
We believe that through play, children experience the joy of discovery for themselves.
Children are also encouraged to build upon problem solving skills, as well as their creativity and socialization skills with other children.
