High school's preschool program has openings

Openings are available beginning in February for children age three to five in the Rolling Meadows High School Mini-Mustang Preschool Program.

The preschool is located at the school, 2901 Central Road, Rolling Meadows. The group meets from 1:15 to 2:45 p.m. every Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday, Feb. 17 through May.

Every Mini-Mustang's day begins with free time to explore the different educational toys and games available. Group time consists of structured activities designed to develop self-esteem and enhance learning. Preschoolers practice the calendar, participate in show-and-tell, and perform finger plays and songs based on the chosen theme for the week. The children have a choice of two educational activities, and their day concludes with snacks and free play.

High school teachers are trained to offer all students a high-quality education in a caring environment. The Mini-Mustang Preschool also provides inclusive education for students with special needs.

Cost is $85 per child. Scholarships are available for special needs children or families with limited financial resources.

Parents may register their child or schedule an appointment to observe the preschool in session this semester by contacting preschool director Linda Pribyl at (847) 718-5640.
