Preschool

In our preschool, children aged two to four enjoy play-based learning with plenty of time outdoors. Teachers are native German speakers and speak German exclusively with the children. However, preschoolers do not need to have prior knowledge of German before enrolling.

Preschool instruction is intimate, with a teacher-to-student ratio of one to six for two-year-olds and one to 10 for three- and four-year-olds. The daily routine is structured yet flexible. With teachers as their guides, children are encouraged to pursue activities of their choice and manage their own time. This fosters their self-discipline and confidence.

We offer half-day and full-day enrollment options at the preschool level. There are five groups in our Preschool, who learn and play together between 8:00am and 1:15pm. Many children also stay for our afternoon program until 2:45 pm or 4:45 pm. During the morning we also offer German Language Instruction in small groups.

If you have any questions, please give us a call at 301.767.3807.
