About Park Place Elem Pre-K

Park Place Elem Pre-K is a public pre-kindergarten program serving the parents and families of Houston. As a pre-k, Park Place Elem Pre-K provides a structured, stable learning environment that replicates the best of the formal school years ahead and is hosted on the same campus where they may even be able to attend kindergarten once they graduate pre-k. Pre-k provides more resources and opportunities for students to explore the world around them, as well as a bevy of peers and socialization opportunities. Park Place Elem Pre-K likewise affords Houston parents a full-time schedule for their children to enjoy. Full-time means children get the full benefits of a structured learning environment for them to explore, play, and laugh with their peers and get the most out of what the wide world of learning has to offer! Children will form close bonds with each other and parents benefit from having enrolled their children in a community while they spend time away. Park Place Elem Pre-K teaches a play-based curriculum that values self-directed, interactive, intuitive learning by and for children. Students at play-based schools get the opportunity to participate in theme-based, hands-on activities with staff that facilitate and direct the discovery process. Through these hands-on activities, students develop social, cognitive and emotional skills built through the cooperation process with their peers. A play-based approach also can spark a love of learning that will be foundational for students throughout their early years of formal school.
