Early Preschool | 2 - 3 Years | Serving Murray, West Valley, & Salt Lake City, UT
Qualified, Caring Teachers Guide & Nurture Your Child
Your child’s teachers are experienced, degreed early childhood educators trained and qualified to attend to their academic, social, and emotional needs. In addition to meeting educational standards, teachers are fully vetted and CPR certified.
Bright, Happy Classrooms Promote Effective Learning
Your preschooler learns in a bright, well-equipped classroom with plenty of space to play and grow. They feel at home with age-appropriate toys, comfortable furniture, classroom routines, and dedicated areas for play, rest, and learning activities.
Creative Curriculum® Provides A Well-Balanced Early Education
The proven, research-based Creative Curriculum® smoothes the transition from the toddlers’ classroom with fun, play-based lessons and activities. Your child explores early math, literacy, and natural science with enthusiasm and wonder.
Active Discovery Puts Learning In Their Hands
Your child participates in active discovery lessons and activities that directly put the keys to learning into their little hands. A child-led, hands-on approach lets your little one explore their interests and see where the learning takes them.
A Growth Mindset Supports Social-Emotional Development
A weekly focus helps your child master vital self-regulation skills one at a time. With support from their expert teachers, they learn to keep trying, share, identify their feelings, and cope when things don’t go their way.
School Skills That Carry Them Forward
Your child’s teacher assists with the skills they need as they head towards the school years. Learning to zip jackets, tie shoes, dress, and undress for the potty, and tidy up after themselves makes your child comfortable, confident, and independent.
Yummy, Nutritious Meals Exceed The State Standards
Your child receives a fresh, delicious breakfast and lunch as part of a highly-rated Top Star meal program. You know they are getting everything they need to nourish their growing brains and bodies.
Active Play Builds Muscles And Confidence
Your little one has a spacious outdoor area to explore and play with friends in the fresh air. They build critical muscle groups and grow confident in their blossoming motor skills. Indoor play and activities keep them moving all day.
Always Stay Connected With The Brightwheel™ App
Your child’s teacher sends adorable photos and videos daily, as well as classroom memos and announcements, right to your phone with the Brightwheel™ app. You stay in touch and on top of all your child’s activities.

My favorite thing about King and Kiana’s school is the structure because King and Kiana have a routine that they don’t have at home. We love the values that they have and they get to play with their friends. I love that the teachers, in my situation, are my co-parents. They’re very supportive and understanding and very collaborative and treat it like a team when it comes to figuring out things with these guys and all their milestones. They’ve been there since they were 18 months old. They’re almost 4 and we’ll definitely be staying for a very long time! Thank you for all you do...they have the best school ever and WE LOVE YOU!
