About the Provider

Description: Our Philosophy...
“Every child who enters our door will become a part of our family. Every family is made up of unique individuals. Here at Oceanport Preschool we recognize that all children are unique and have individual needs that must be met. It is our responsibility to meet these needs and at the same time make your child an integral member of our family.”

We Want You!
Parents are their children’s first teachers. We, at Oceanport Preschool, believe that in order to make school a rewarding experience for your child, we will need a relationship with you!

Our school maintains an open-door policy, we welcome visits at any time throughout the year. We will have special events and activities during the year that will require parent participation, please take part in as many of the events as you can.

Children are evaluated twice a year in November and June, but Parent Conferences may be requested at any time to discuss your child’s progress.

Our curriculum is teacher designed and is based on the skills needed for success in Kindergarten, the goals in the four major developmental areas, and existing literature on preschool education.

re interested in our program, please call us and set up an appointment.
