Andover Preschool and Family Place
Tucked away in a little corner of a strip mall, Andover Preschool and Family Place has served families for more than a decade, offering a variety of early learning activities and classes for parents and young children.
Inviting atmosphere
As with all of our ECFE locations, the Andover Preschool and Family Place classrooms are staffed by licensed parent educators and early childhood teachers. They are dedicated to providing positive support for families and use intentional teaching strategies to meet children’ s individual needs.
After attending a class recently, a parent shared“ It’ s a great place with great, caring, and knowledgeable teachers. We are very happy to be a part of this learning experience.”
Sarah Strate, preschool teacher at Andover Preschool and Family Place shared,“ Our preschoolers love to explore the world around them. We offer a variety of fun and educational activities specifically for our youngest learners. Our preschool classes encourage learning, socialization, creativity and discovery.”
Unique preschool opportunity
One of the most unique classes at Andover Preschool and Family Place is A Taste of Preschool PLUS!( page 10), which offers a fun twist on preschool for younger preschool-aged children. Offered on Tuesdays and Thursdays, preschool children attend with their parents and siblings on Tuesdays – for fun and learning together as well as separate times for each. On Thursdays, the preschool-aged children come back to school for a continued opportunity to experience a preschool classroom.
