Our Class Offerings
FPP has something to offer every young family
- Little Miracles
  This unique class, structured for parents to attend along with their child, is a great introduction to preschool as well as an avenue to make connections with other FPP families. For the children, art, music, story time and free play all work together to build social development and group cooperation. For the adult, discussing relevant topics, learning about the developmental stages of their child, guest speakers, and community support, enhance the parenting experience as a whole.

  If your child will be 5 years old by September 1, they may move on to Kindergarten as determined by a readiness review, or you can select our Jr. K program if you desire an additional year of preparation for Kindergarten.
