REDDING, CT — Landmark Preschool, consisting of four premier preschool facilities in Fairfield and Westchester counties, will cease operating its Redding facility at the close of the school year, June 9, 2020.

"After reviewing area demographic data and considering all options, it made sense to focus our resources on the Landmark campuses where we are seeing the most enrollment growth: Ridgefield and Westport, CT, and Bedford, NY,” says Head of School Tom Main. “We’re pleased that the Landmark program remains strong and we look forward to working with our Redding families to make the transition as seamless as possible for them.”

Landmark Redding families who choose to relocate to the Landmark Ridgefield campus in the fall of 2020 will enjoy a recently enhanced preschool facility, including a dedicated playground, Kitchen Lab, organic garden, gymnasium, and numerous other resources including a buddy program with older students. Students will also benefit from frequent classes with specialist teachers in the areas of art, music, PE, cooking, library, science, and world language. Landmark Preschool Ridgefield resides on the Ridgefield Academy campus, providing continuity for children attending kindergarten through grade 8.

Families may also choose to enroll at Landmark Preschool Westport, which educates children through kindergarten. The Landmark Preschool Westport campus has two dedicated playgrounds, a kitchen, STEM lab, and a full gymnasium. Private tours at both locations are available beginning January 2020. The Landmark Preschool Redding staff and faculty will work with Redding families on transition plans.
