Preschool
La Escuelita is unique among Upper West Side preschools in combining an excellent preschool education with bilingual instruction in Spanish and English. Children 2 to 5 years old can attend. The school year runs from September through June with an optional summer program.
Children in the 2-year-old classes will be taught primarily in Spanish, while the children in the programs for 3 and 4 year olds will be taught in English and Spanish with an emphasis on Spanish. This maximizes exposure to Spanish while transitioning them to a 90/10 dual language model, to be followed in the program for the older children.
