Where their first words matter.

Renaissance Pre-K is a warm, intentional start - three age levels (PK2, PK3, PK4) where children learn through play, build foundational habits, and meet their first surahs and du'as alongside numbers, letters, and friendships.

A Day in Pre-K

Predictable rhythm, room to play.

Young children thrive on routine. Days at Renaissance Pre-K follow a consistent flow - so children know what comes next, settle in quickly, and feel safe to explore.

Mondays are early dismissal all year - 2:30 to 3:00 PM for Pre-K and the big school. Tuesday through Friday dismissal is 3:25 to 3:55 PM as usual. The afterschool program starts August 17 and runs until 5:00 PM, Mondays included.

This is the shape of a typical day. The published PK2 and PK3 classroom schedules for 2026-2027, the August Open House and Meet & Greet dates, and the two-week phase-in for new children are all on the preschool page.

Curriculum

What we teach.

Three intertwined strands - academic readiness, faith formation, and character - woven through every part of the day rather than separated into competing blocks.

Early academics

  • Letter and sound recognition
  • Counting and number sense to 20
  • Pre-writing skills and pencil grip
  • Story comprehension and rich vocabulary
  • Color, shape, pattern, and sequencing

Qur'an & faith

  • Short surahs from Juz 'Amma by repetition
  • Daily du'as: eating, sleeping, traveling, wudu
  • Names of Allah, stories of the prophets
  • Arabic letters and high-frequency words
  • Wudu practice and the beginnings of salah

Character & community

  • Sharing, turn-taking, and friendship skills
  • Saying salaam, "alhamdulillah," and "thank you"
  • Helping in the classroom - small jobs daily
  • Naming and managing big feelings
  • Adab: respect for teachers, parents, friends
