Preschool Program

Bixby Preschool

Bixby’s Preschool is designed to support and encourage children’s lively intellects with a flexible, and active learning curriculum shaped by student interests and individual personalities.

Community Based Activities
Weekly field trips to Morning Star, community clean-up walks, where children help care for our neighborhood
Low Student Teacher Ratio
Children learn and play in mixed aged groups, led by loving, experienced teachers. Student teacher ratios are intentionally low to ensure children receive close attention and care.
Curriculum
Our experienced early childhood faculty actively discover children's interests to design exploratory learning opportunities that engage our children deeply and joyfully.
Full Swim Program
Students swim twice weekly in our indoor salt water pool, receiving individual instruction and gaining skills for a lifetime of fun.
Developmentally Appropriate Programming
Our classroom integrates music, Spanish language exposure, and activities that build strength, coordination, and balance throughout the learning day.
Outside Time
Loads of daily outside time to explore our beautiful playgrounds or take in fresh air while gardening, making mud pies, or playing with friends on our three-acre campus.
