Private Kindergarten
"I feel that Primrose greatly contributed to Katy’s education because of the curriculum and the quality of the teachers they employ. Katy is now enrolled in the gifted program at her school. I give Primrose much of the credit because I was able to watch her as she learned new things. More importantly, I consider Primrose cream of the crop."

Preparing for lifelong learning both academically and emotionally.
A Philosophy of Balance
Nothing
prepares your child for success in elementary school like a strong
kindergarten experience where academic and social development go
hand-in-hand with physical well-being. A balance of group activities,
individual attention, and a strong emphasis on reading and math
provides each child with a solid foundation for elementary school
success.
Preparation for the School Years Ahead
The
U.S. Department of Education No Child Left Behind Act states that a
quality early childhood education is crucial to a child’s
future school success. Here are a few facts about the quality of the
Primrose Private Kindergarten program:
- Our
annual assessment of graduating Primrose students shows that they
consistently score above average on a nationally normed measure of
school readiness. For the past two years Primrose students have scored
in the 90th percentile compared to same-age
peers across the nation.
- In addition, a
recent independent system-wide survey indicated that kindergarten
parents are pleased with the Primrose curriculum and agree that
Primrose provides their children with a solid foundation for elementary
school.
- Primrose Schools Private
Kindergarten offers your child a comprehensive, literacy-based,
teacher-directed curriculum that prepares your child for elementary
school.
- Primrose, with our exclusive
Balanced Learning®
curriculum, was the first private early childhood education company in
the United States accredited by ADVANCED (SACS CASI and NCA CASI, the
accrediting bodies of
AdvancED®.)
Charting Individual Growth and Development
The
Balanced Learning Student Evaluations give our
Kindergarten teachers a blueprint of learning outcomes and teaching
objectives that enable them to plan and implement instruction in
meaningful and purposeful ways. However, children mature and
develop skills at different rates so teachers track and share each
child’s progress with parents during the year through Student
Evaluations, norm-referenced assessments, parent-teacher conferences,
and other components of our Balanced Assessment.
