🎒 PCSD Preschool is Growing 🎒 

Preschool has grown by 40% in just one year, driven by expanded classrooms and full-day programming for three- and four-year-olds five days per week.

For the first time, four-year-olds are participating in classes like music, physical education, library, and computer science (sans computers), helping ease the transition into kindergarten.

Long-term studies are unequivocal. Attending high quality preschool increases:

• High School Graduation Rates
• Years of College Completed 
• Lifetime Earned Income

“Studies show that investing in early childhood can yield a return of seven to twelve dollars for every dollar spent over a child’s lifetime.”

-Missy Tschabrun, PCSD Preschool Coordinator

❤️ PCSD Preschoolers are Excited to Learn ❤️

“Jeremy Ranch Preschool has been a perfect fit for our family. The teachers are engaging, excited, and welcome the students each day with a warm smile. It’s helped create the foundation for our children to become increasingly independent, excited about school, and lifelong learners.



-Jessica Huser, Preschool Parent
