    Education With Enthusiasm

    History

    The oldest preschool in the area, Susquehanna Valley Preschool has been in operation for more than 49 years! Susquehanna Valley 'Nursery School' was started by a group of mothers who wanted to provide an opportunity for their children to interact with other children.

    Valley has changed its name to Susquehanna Valley Preschool to better reflect our emphasis on education with enthusiasm, which is our mission.

     

    Just as when Valley began, we are concerned with the growth of the individual child. We provide for physical, social, emotional, creative and intellectual growth. The founders believed that children should be positively attracted to learning experiences. We at Susquehanna Valley Preschool feel that is we fill a child with these positive feelings, we have accomplished a great task.

    Philosophy

    It is our belief that enthusiasm for learning begins early in a child's life. We at Susquehanna Valley Preschool strive to make the first learning experience an enjoyable and positive one.

     

    Our goal is to provide a strong educational foundation upon which to build your child's future.

    Curriculum

    Susquehanna Valley Preschool offers a structured and enjoyable educational experience which makes learning fun and exciting. Blocks of time are set up for a variety of learning opportunities. The classroom is set up to have different stations, each set up for different activities and styles of learning. Susquehanna Valley Preschool's "work and play" activities include stories, group lessons, arts and crafts, fine and gross motor skills, as well as free play. We have a wonderful safe and secure playground for our students.

     

    Themed less introduce students to geography through studying other cultures, science through exciting experiments, language arts through sharing time, basic concepts in math through numbers and counting and much, much more.

     

    Children are treated to special guests and visitors from the community throughout the school year. Such as a visit from the local fire department, a visit from a dental hygienist and a vision screener from CSSS. Field trips to the Lewisburg Children's Muesum and the local library are taken throughout the school year also.
