TUITION: Sprouts Academy Preschool maintains a competitive pricing model that is matched against other early childhood education centers in the area. At Sprouts Academy we differentiate ourselves by maintaining an incredible teacher to student ratio. All of our teachers are formally educated in Early Childhood Education and most either have been awarded or are currently in the pursuit of their Master's Degrees.
Our space is designed as a physical expression of our mission to introduce a sustainable lifestyle into the consciousness and development of children right from the beginning, both in learning and in play. We have incorporated several green features throughout the space, as well as provided opportunities for children to touch and interact with the natural elements in the space.
The Bean Sprouts are the youngest students at Sprouts Academy. At 2-3 years old, this is the first experience with school for most of these children. We provide a fun and inviting atmosphere with the hopes of making their introduction to school a positive one. In our classroom, we encourage exploration and experimentation.
The Redwoods classroom is our Pre-Kindergarten room. The students and teachers engage in long and short term projects based on the Reggio Emilia Approach and the Emergent Curriculum. Projects and studies are initiated by the interests of the students and are implemented through documentation, observation, and questioning.
Sprouts strives to remain a progressive school in the area of early childhood education. Part of our initiatives include Emergent, Reggio Emilia-Inspired, and play-based approaches to learning. We also strive to attain and maintain accreditation through multiple sources (EDGE, NAEYC, etc) that support and influence our social give back, environment, and assessment programs.

We are very disappointed in Sprouts "Academy" for many reasons. About 9 months ago, we pulled our 4 year old son out of the daycare after only 3 months. This was his first time in a daycare atmosphere and obviously took him some time to adapt to the new environment. First off, we were told they have a day to day "curriculum" but in reality there is more unstructured time than structured time. They spend most of the day at the park down the street from their facility in addition to a 2 HOUR nap time. While the "teachers" may seem to have a decent educational background

Our son has been going to Sprouts since he was 2 years old. Now, he is almost 5 and ready to go to Kindergarten. We also started our 2 year old daughter there just recently. We have had a great experience at Sprouts. Our son has severe nut allergies and they are a nut free school. Kids are not allowed to bring in any snacks to share. In fact, they serve lunch and it is all organic and healthy meals. The teachers are extremely qualified with many pursuing masters degrees. They have tons of enrichment programs. And it is a totally green school! They learn about nature, recycling, and helping

Our daughter currently attends Sprouts Academy. We looked at five different preschools in the Wicker Park/West Town area before choosing Sprouts. We could not be happier with the experience we are having.
Our daughter loves going to school!
The facility is safe, secure and clean. The teachers (Erin and Dayna) and staff are outstanding and really care about the children.
There are many opportunities for parents to participate in activities.
Our daughter talks about her music and yoga classes, her trips to the park, her field trips to the Urban Garden. She has new friends, her vocabulary tripled

Our son attended school here for almost 3 years starting at 2 1/2 years old. We started one month after the school opened and while there were some growing pains with the school, our overall experience was very positive. The main reason we liked the school was the caliber of the teachers and the student teacher ratio. We also really loved their extra Smithsonian enrichment programs. We are now in kindergarten and come back frequently to visit and say hello to his old teachers.

I and my wife are the parents of a 2.5 year old daughter who just began today! We researched many schools. I had visited this school in the past. This is a very well organized preschool, very pleasant to be in regarding the physical space, thoughtfulness is reflected in many ways through the school. The staff have been uniformly professional, intelligent and informative. While a bit clingy for the first five minutes, my daughter adopted to the class shortly thereafter even as I and my wife stayed in the classroom for 5 more minutes to watch. We stayed in the hallway talking to another parent
