Pre-kindergarten has been consistently shown to set a strong foundation for early learners and the public pre-k program at Kelso Elem Pre-K might just be the right choice for you and your family. Pre-kindergarten programs like at Kelso Elem Pre-K are hosted in a school-like environment, often on the same campus as students can later attend kindergarten, and emphasize development of core skills and readiness for the years ahead. Students at pre-ks will an enriching environment for strong spatial, vocabulary and other skill development as well as a raft of peers to learn with. With a full-time schedule, Kelso Elem Pre-K also can provide the care that Houston parents need. Full-time means that students get the best of repeated daily instruction with non-family adults and peers of similar ages. Students will see their development and learning skills grow quickly in an environment that’ll set them up well for the years ahead! Parents get the benefit, too, of enrolling their children in a learning community all the while having the large time blocks to spend at work or on other responsibilities. Kelso Elem Pre-K additionally takes a play-based approach to children's development and learning, facilitating education through interactive, hands-on activities that get children moving. Play-based environments structure their spaces to encourage students to move with independence, passion and explore at their own direction. Staff in these environments encourage and galvanize students to lean into their interests and build their own worlds in cooperation with their peers, and students gain cooperative, social and emotional skills as a result of these communal activities.
