Welcome to Foster City Preschool

Our teachers have the ability and are sensitive to the needs of each and every child. A ratio of 1 teacher per 12 children is maintained. Foster City Preschool and Day Care Center's primary goal is to serve the children by offering a nurturing and stimulating environment for young children between the ages 2 thru 6. School is open year round. Toilet training is available.We believe in providing the child with individual learning objectives, direct teaching and styles of learning, environmental structure and reinforcement through the use of learning material and meaningful curriculum.

Instruction is based on positive reinforcement for individual skill levels. The curriculum is programmed in the areas of language development, gross motor, fine motor, arts and crafts, music and science. Incorporated also will be field trips, gymnastics, and computers.

Reminders

St. Patrick's Day

The children will celebrate St. Patrick’s Day at school on Monday, March 17th, by wearing something GREEN to school. They will enjoy shamrock milkshakes for snack. Parents can sign up to bring in vanilla ice cream. We are aware of the children who cannot have cow’s milk.

Birthday Parties

We know how much fun the children have at their birthday party at school. The “simple” parties are the best parties. Instead of a birthday cake, please bring unfrosted cupcakes or muffins, brownies, cookies, jello squares, or anything bite sized. Instead of goodie bags, it would be great for the birthday child to donate a game, a puzzle, an educational or G-rated video, or a book to the classroom.

Put your child’s name and birthday on the item, then have your child bring the wrapped gift to their class. It will be quite an event for your child to open the gift and the whole class to enjoy it together. By the end of the year, each class will have quite a birthday library.

Extra Clothing

Please make sure your child always has a change of clothes in his/her classroom. We are not able to keep extra clothing at the school. If there is an “accident” and your child doesn’t have any extra clothes, we will have to call you at work. Also, please make sure the clothing is appropriate for the current weather and is the correct size!
