The program at Rockville Nursery School and Kindergarten is designed to provide for the total growth of a child within an environment in which children are encouraged to explore, pretend, create, express feelings, display emotion and experience joy. As we bridge the gap between home and school, we guide children toward a good self-image while helping them to develop their skills.

We are looking forward to being with your children. We have developed a program that we feel will meet the needs of your children and will make this a meaningful and happy experience for them. We will incorporate science (which includes cooking activities and experiments), music, dramatics and creative movement, and math into our curriculum schedule.
Our PreK program is designed to meet the needs of four and five year old children. This class will work in small groups, and at times one-on one to develop appropriate foundation reading, math, science, social studies language and handwriting skills. These Pre K students will have the opportunity to move ahead based upon their motivation, maturity and readiness level.
