Kindergarten Programs

Introduce your child to the exciting world of science with our Kindergarten programs! Children will explore and experience science with fun hands-on activities. All children enrolled in the Kindergarten programs must be entering Kindergarten in Fall 2010. Children must be comfortable with a classroom environment and be able to stay without a parent or guardian for the 2 ½ hour class.

NEW! Join the Band
Sing, dance, and play in this class while discovering the rhythm within you through beats you create with simple instruments. Move your body to the beat and learn about the science of sound at the same time! Groove your way to learning about how sound is made, how you hear sound, and why it’s so important for survival and communication!
