Preschool Night at Farmington Community Library

Evaluating the many early education options in our community can be a daunting task for families. Choices include public, parochial, co-op, Montessori schools and more.

Parents who are thinking about fall preschool options for their child can meet with a variety of facility representatives at Preschool Night at the Farmington Community Library. The library, along with members of the Pledge for Success coalition, are dedicated to the goal of helping children be ready for Kindergarten and are pleased to provide this opportunity to bring families and organizations together. 

Nancy Ely from Farmington Public Schools will be on hand with details about their early childhood programs, which serve several hundred students throughout the school district. Folks who wish to explore smaller faith-based programs will have the opportunity to meet Carol Sutherland from Our Lady of Sorrows, Robin Croft from St. Paul’s Lutheran, Sharon Detter from Antioch Lutheran, and Mary Carson from Farmington Presbyterian Preschool.

The tradition of parents involved at preschool is thriving at Mayfair Co-Op Preschool and Katie Bonus is eager to talk about it. Parents considering a Montessori curriculum for their child can meet Doron Vergun from Schoolhouse Montessori.  Jillian Hukill will answer questions about the preschool program she offers in her home day care, Little Tree Huggers.  Busy families can also learn about the curriculums offered at childcare centers including Kindercare and Bright Horizons. 

Adults are welcome to attend this free program.
