Naperville Park District Preschool Information Nights offered Jan. 11 and 18
Parents are invited to learn more about the Naperville Park District's preschool programs at one of two identical Preschool Information Nights. The first will take place from 6 -7 p.m. on Thursday, Jan. 11, at Alfred Rubin Riverwalk Community Center and the second will be held from 6 -7 p.m. on Thursday, Jan. 18, at Knoch Knolls Nature Center.
Preschool staff will be on hand to answer questions about the District's two preschool programs for the 2018-19 year, which are the Naperville Park District (NPD) Preschool Academy and Toadstools and Pollywogs Preschool.
The NPD Preschool Academy emphasizes creative play and hands-on learning, focusing on individual growth, self-esteem, problem solving and social interaction. Toadstools and Pollywogs teaches the same curriculum but with an emphasis on outdoor play and nature.
