Launch Into Learning Preschool

Pwofesè nou yo

Hi! We are Miss Alisha and Miss Laurie. We both love kids so much and have been working with the youth for a combined 40 years: Alisha as a youth camp and after school leader, paraprofessional, and an English Language Arts teacher, and Laurie as a paraprofessional and elementary school secretary. We both have a passion for teaching, and now we get to teach YOUR child! We are so excited!

Blackfoot’s Premier Preschool Program for Ages 3-5 (Strictly a Preschool)

So you can rest easy at night, knowing your child will be prepared for kindergarten, make friends, and have fun. We’re so excited for you to join our preschool family!

When you’re here, you’re family! You’ll love our warm, bright in-home preschool, and your child will love our 1-on-1 attention with two teachers and a volunteer in class sizes with less than 20 students.

We use an adapted curriculum from ABC Bootcamp and our own play based lesson plans for fine motor skills at our morning tables, and gross motor skills at recess as well as centers (free choice) to end the class. Art, science, reading, music, and math are all a part of our schedule.

Our preschool is located in the quiet neighborhood called Pheasant Hollow. It is just a short walk from Ridge Crest Elementary School. We have an outdoor area for play, a reading room for small groups, and a preschool room for everything else.

When you join our preschool, your child gets a free t-shirt that he or she can wear on our family field trips and to school the first day of each month.

We use a curriculum called ABC Bootcamp™ and adapt it to work with our preschool and the needs for our students. It is based on a science of reading-based, rigorous, immersive classroom-proven 26-day (or week in our case) introduction to letters and sounds. We focus on each letter for a few minutes several times throughout the week. Our students learn using fine and gross motor skills throughout each class.

Our preschool family goes on two field trips each year. The first is a trip to the corn maze or pumpkin patch, and the second is a first responder field trip to either the Fire Station or the Police Station.

We also have a graduation at the end of the year where families of our preschoolers can get together to celebrate a fantastic year of learning and fun for our preschoolers.
