WELCOME TO HIGHLANDS PRESCHOOL

Abeka and Saxon Academic Curriculum: Abeka and Saxon focus on foundational skills in phonics, reading, math, science, and social studies, with Abeka offering a strong Christian worldview and Saxon (for KC) emphasizing the use of spelling patterns and letter coding techniques to help students understand the relationships between sounds and letters.

Lilio Academic Curriculum: Our Lillio Curriculum, is designed for Toddlers and Preschool students, following the California Preschool Learning Foundations and Infant/Toddler Learning and Development Foundations. This holistic, well-rounded program features an engaging monthly theme and supports your child’s development through hands-on crafts, fine-motor activities, songs, stories, and early academic concepts, all thoughtfully tailored to be age- and skill-appropriate, making learning meaningful and fun.

Social and Emotional Curriculum: The SEL Curriculum helps our preschoolers learn important skills like managing their feelings, understanding others, communicating well, and solving problems with friends, all while supporting their growth in self-awareness and healthy relationships.

Simply Loved Bible Curriculum: Simply Loved is a Bible-centered program that engages children with stories from both the Old and New Testaments, combined with worship songs and memory verses to foster spiritual growth.

Library Visitations and Emphasis on Reading:

This program fosters a love for reading through regular visits to the library, where children are exposed to a variety of books and enjoy storytelling sessions that ignite their imagination and literacy skills.

Art Class:

In art class, children are encouraged to explore their creativity and gain an understanding of visual arts concepts. This program allows them to express themselves through different mediums, developing both their artistic skills and appreciation for the arts.

Vacation Bible School (5-week summer program): VBS is a fun, faith-based summer program offering children Bible lessons, songs, crafts, and activities over five weeks to deepen their understanding of Christian values and foster community.

“My child loves his teachers and loves going to school! We are very happy with the progress he has made in the short time he has been in HCS. We can see how much he enjoys going to school and for this we are very happy and thankful for all of his teachers and staff at HCS.” - Claudine C.

“Ms. Gloria and Ms. Grace have done an exceptional job exploring ideas, creating and finding ways for the kids to get creative, and have hands-on learning experience to allow the kids to interact among each other in ways that we as parents would not have been able to do for them at home, due to lack of materials (and time). Seeing photos of my child on Brightwheel doing different types of learning activities (including song and dance) gives me a sense of security for my child and that my child is in a safe environment with his teachers and classmates; therefore, it makes sending my child to preschool at HCS all worth the while in spite of the cost or expenses that comes with daycare/preschool. It’s also important to mention that my child is learning a very important Christian foundation at HCS.” - Dave A.

“Thank you for everything you do to keep our children safe and for them to enjoy learning. I want to distinctively recognize Teacher April for her hardwork and patience. Ever since my child attended the Bear class, she was able to memorize bible verses and songs. As a Christian family, this is huge for us. We want our kids to grow in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ and embrace the faith. Because of that, we are very grateful.” - Veronica A.
