Metrokids Preschool is a community-based early learning center. We strive each day to be the best providers of early childhood education for all the communities we serve. We are committed to helping and assisting all people in our communities, including the children in our care, their parents and families, and our staff and extended specialty teachers.

We encourage the community to become MetroKids Preschool members. Together we will help our children become successful and capable life-long learners.
How our mission is accomplished
Since we believe that the strength of an excellent early learning program is in the quality and commitment of the school community. We work together as a team to best meet each child’s needs.
- Directors become mentors for newly hired teachers to ensure that positive modeling and enhanced teaching strategies are utilized.
- We provide on-going staff development for our teachers, which is conducted on-site as well as off-site by master level trainers.
- Our classrooms and teachers are continually assessed, which enables our staff members to reflect, learn, and grow to be the best educators for our children.
- Teachers create a kind and caring atmosphere, which helps children develop their imagination and creativity.
- We strive to create a climate of mutual respect, and encourage daily communication amongst parents, teachers, and administrators.
- We believe parents are the most significant adults in a child’s life. Therefore, our doors are open to parents at all times.
- Classrooms are designed to inspire young learners, capturing each child’s interests, ideas, and independence to encourage a growing awareness of self and others.
Research states that early experiences build brain architecture and lay the foundation for life-long learning. These experiences are rooted in infancy and carry forward into elementary school. It is through play-based interactions that involve cooperation, problem solving, and critical thinking that children develop best. Our student-driven, play-based curriculum focuses on your child’s development, which includes literacy, STEM, social and emotional skills, and physical maturation.
