All About The Preschool Transition Program
Mile Square Early Learning Center (MSELC) created a Preschool Transition Program for children ages 2 to 4 years old who do not meet the cut-off for PreK-3-4 enrollment. Children from Hoboken, Weehawken, Jersey City, or adjacent towns can attend the program at the Mile Square Rue Site, located at 301 Garden Street in Hoboken.
This program is designed for families who want to introduce their child to a preschool setting with a staff of skilled educators. The state-approved curriculum provides developmentally appropriate goals and objectives for young children through social/emotional, physical, cognitive, and language instruction using a theme-based learning model.
The program operates Monday through Friday from 8:30AM to 3:00PM and also has before and after school care starting at 7:30AM until 6:00PM. Additionally, the Preschool Transition Program has opportunities for three full days a week, with limited spaces available. And with competitive tuition rates, compared to other local early childhood programs in the area, this program is a great choice for your little one.
