Opening for 4 year old at Faith Lutheran Preschool

Opening for 4 year old at Faith Lutheran Preschool - Arlington, VA

Faith Lutheran Preschool is an absolutely fantastic Reggio Emilia school, located south of Clarendon, in the Ashton Heights neighborhood, at N. Jackson St and Rte 50/N. 1st Street, near Lyon Park. The best things about the school are the Teachers, the Parent Community, and the child-directed nature of the Reggio program. One of our alum parents wrote, “At 4, our son “graduated” with the ability to write, count, and finally even draw a self portrait, but most of all at that age, learned great lessons about social situations and friendships. I also love their Outdoor Classroom, complete with mudkitchen, story tellers circle, outdoor art center, garden, etc. It is a warm, welcoming community and a simply fantastic prep for Kindergarten.” As an aside, this is also a great fit for a child who may need s third year of preschool with a late birthday, whether this year or next!

The hours for the 4+ year old class are 9:15am - 12:50pm, Tuesday through Friday, with a before school care program, and they’ll be starting up some after school programs this year, as well.
