Preschool Program:
The Las Vegas Day School Preschool is a well-balanced and comprehensive program that provides our children with a solid foundation for future academic success. The program concentrates on the complete social, emotional, cognitive, and physical development of the three-year-old child.

Pre-Kindergarten Program:
The Pre-Kindergarten program provides a positive and rich environment of discovery-learning experiences directed toward four- and five-year-old children. Our goal is to prepare children academically and emotionally for entrance into Kindergarten. The atmosphere of the classroom is designed to create an excitement for learning through multi-experience subject matter carefully designed for the young child. This will be accomplished with a balanced scheme of centers, as well as with small- and large-group learning activities.

Kindergarten Program:
The Kindergarten program places emphasis upon the individual child's creativity, learning readiness, personal awareness, self-expression, and courtesy. The reading program stimulates each student to read and comprehend from readiness activities to advanced reading at any grade level. Vocabulary development and comprehension are also a major part of the reading program. Instruction in modern manuscript printing and story writing is given with the goal of first-grade proficiency. Memorization of poems and class recitation is encouraged.

In mathematics, the goal is to develop a quick, easy, and accurate knowledge of numeral recognition and value, which leads into counting by ones, twos, fives, and tens. Basic addition and subtraction, time and money are also taught. The classroom has a rich science environment with ample learning opportunities. Social studies is a daily event with programs, guest speakers, and visual aids which offer a broad spectrum of information, enrichment, and topics. Music, dancing, and singing are practiced regularly, and the children participate daily in organized games and outdoor play.
