Pre-K Program
Our Pre-K program at Triad International Studies Academy (TISA) offers a nurturing and dynamic environment to foster early academic and social development. Key features of our program include:
-
Multi-Language Immersion: Children are introduced to both Chinese and Spanish, allowing families to explore both languages before deciding which will be the best fit for their child’s learning journey.
-
Foundational Learning Skills: We emphasize early reading habits and number sense, helping students develop essential skills for future academic success.
-
Math and Problem-Solving: Through hands-on activities, students learn to recognize numbers, patterns, and engage in problem-solving exercises to build confidence in math.
-
Nature Exploration: Our program encourages curiosity by allowing children to explore nature, fostering a love for the environment through indoor and outdoor discovery, as well as field trips.
-
Creative and Collaborative Learning: We prioritize creativity and collaboration to help students develop critical thinking skills, emotional resilience, and a love for learning.
-
Small Class Sizes and Individual Attention: With a low student-to-teacher ratio (10:1), we ensure personalized attention to support each child’s unique learning needs.
-
Seamless Transition to Kindergarten: Enrolling in our Pre-K program guarantees students a smooth transition to kindergarten at TISA without going through the lottery process.
By choosing TISA’s Pre-K program, your child will receive a high-quality early education in a supportive, inclusive community that values diversity, kindness, and academic excellence.
