Ages for which our activities are most appropriate: 
Providing Ann Arbor area families with a quality, affordable preschool education for more than 40 years. Ann Arbor made the switch to full-day Kindergarten, a change that makes a preschool education even more valuable for many children. Glacier Way Preschool offers classes twice per week for three-year-olds and three times per week for four-year-olds. Located on the west side of town, on S. Seventh Street near Pauline, we welcome you to visit our school.

Philosophy
The preschool years are an important time in the development of a child’s feelings of security and self-esteem. We feel that these needs can best be nourished through the joint efforts of a qualified, understanding teacher and caring parents contributing to a play-based program. A well-designed daily routine provides security for the children in a relaxed, friendly atmosphere that fosters caring and respectful social relationships. The children are encouraged to develop creativity, self-discipline and thinking skills through a rich variety of activities such as art, music, dress-up, story time, block building and field trips. Our hope is that children will grow physically, intellectually, and emotionally. We welcome a diverse membership, and parents are encouraged to share their cultures and traditions with the children.
