THE PROGRAM

In addition to the continuation of learning opportunities introduced in our 3s classes, we begin to see children’s interests ignited through intricate block building, neighborhood trips, thoughtful plans for our Learning Garden, and cooking on a regular basis in our 4s classroom space. These experiences lead to detailed discussions, emerging literacy and integrated math challenges; all of which help prepare our students for their next school steps, be they in public or independent kindergartens. Our oldest preschoolers may elect to begin private instrument lessons in the Preschool Instrument Program (PIP). In addition to all of their classroom activities each day, they also have the opportunity to make strong connections and extend their learning through the arts as they go to their specials. The Fours have Music and Movement class weekly, Ballet once a week, and Art once a week.


As children transition to kindergarten, we hope that each child feels confident about who they are as unique individuals. It is our hope that we have helped lay a solid foundation for each student, so they move forward with a love of life-long learning for all things both academic and in the arts, meaningful first friendships, community, resilience, and a strong, confident sense of self and wonderful memories of their time at Third Street; ready to take on the rigors of kindergarten!

Enrichment Opportunities

Preschool Instrument Program (PIP) is an exciting exploratory introduction to music making for our Fours. This year our PIP offerings include piano, ukulele, guitar, violin, and toot (beginner flute). 


Third Street’s best instructors, who are experienced in early childhood instruction, teach lessons weekly and they conveniently take place during the school day. This program not only introduces preschoolers to the magic of music but also serves as a bridge to formal music lessons beyond preschool. By incorporating music education seamlessly into their daily routines, Third Street Preschool fosters a deep appreciation for music and encourages young learners to continue their musical journey, setting the stage for a lifelong exploration of the musical arts.
