Butterflies – Georgia Pre-K Program
Our Early Learning Academy comes to full bloom as Caterpillars leave their cocoons and spread their wings in our Pre-Kindergarten Programs. Pre-K models a typical grade school day by establishing a more organized environment, set start and end times, incorporating uniforms and an advanced curriculum that gives fours a head-start so that the transition to Elementary School happens with ease, confidence and academic readiness. Fours are the “big kids on campus” and we strive to make their senior year at ABC a memorable one.
Children that have participated in a Pre-K Program are more likely to show strengths in language, reasoning, problem solving, social skills, behavioral and emotional health – all of which are key to building a solid foundation for continued success through life’s learning experiences to come. We operate on a school-year calendar with a standards-based curriculum that assesses your child’s progress quarterly to ensure they are prepared for the routine and rigor of Kindergarten.
ABC offers a Free Kindergarten Program at the Midtown and Stockbridge location that’s sponsored by the Georgia Lottery. Participation is voluntary on a first come, first serve basis as Georgia’s Pre-K Program space is limited to a set number of available slots each school year. Both our Free and Private Pre-K Programs compliment your local school system and operates on a 6.5 hours daily schedule – 180 days of the calendar year. Standard school hours are 7:30AM – 2:30PM, however your child is invited to extend their learning day by registering for Before and After Care programs to accommodate your work schedule.

The Pre-K Program is geared to stimulate fast-track cognitive development through the structured school day. Like grade school, fours spend an allotted amount of time on each of the core learning subjects and receive homework/assessments accordingly.
In addition to language and literacy acquisition, we incorporate:
· Math: Counting, sequencing, creating patterns, sorting, adding, subtracting, quantitative reasoning, measuring and graphing.
· Social Studies: Learning about community figures, family roles and relationships, cultural diversity and anthropology, current events and geography.
· Nature & Science: Teaching children about the environment, weather, living and nonliving components of our ecosystem through developing an understanding of thenatural and physical world.
· Engineering: Allowing small minds to think big about how things are built and why to understand that tools are used to help people do things better and building is aprocess that takes place all around them.

I absolutely love it. We actually left for a few weeks and I almost immediately regretted the decision…. Every time I come in here he’s smiling and happy…. This makes me as a mom feel extremely comfortable.
They’ve had my son since he was 6 months old. This is a wonderful place to be. We love it because they’ve given him a place to learn and to play and to be loved on as much as he needs to be.
We’ve been at ABC for over 2 years. We chose ABC because the staff here has been awesome to work with. Would I recommend you guys ? Absolutely. It’s been nothing but a pleasure here.
