Preschool
We are Waypoint Preschool located at 225 Gospel Drive Nocatee, FL. 32081 Our goal and vision as a school is to prepare our students to be prepared spiritually, physically, academically, socially and emotionally for the next stages of life. When they leave our school we want them to go out and be leaders and be fully equipped in all of these areas above. What makes us unique: We are one of the only true Preschools in the area (not a Daycare). We offer a loving Christian preschool environment that focuses on a learn through play environment that teaches the students to gain independence, allows for social/emotional interaction in small group and large group settings. Has a brand new state of the art playground and is warm and inviting to families. Our school opens at 9am and our last students in extended care get picked up at 3:30pm We offer the following options for families. Each of our classes has a Lead teacher and an assistant teacher Before Care Option We offer before care for an additional hour onto the day for 3 year old, 4 year old and 5 year old students (not offered for our advanced 2's class) Advanced 2's program Advanced 2's class (students must be 2.5 years old and potty trained) - 12 students max 3 year old program 3 year old program - 15 students max M/W/F option: 3 days and goes from 9am to 1:15pm (extended day option available) Tuesday/Thursday option: 2 days and goes from 9am to 1:15pm (extended day option available) VPK 3 day program VPK Program (3 days a week) 9am to 2:30pm - 3 classes of 18 students each Transitional Kindergarten program Transitional Kindergarten program - This is a 5 day program for students who have finished the VPK program but are not quite ready for the Kindergarten classes. Some of the reason might include but are not limited to: - Age: having a late birthday - Social/Emotional growth: Wanting more time to develop this - Academics: Wanting more focalized attention on this in a smaller environment - Pace of learning: We love that we have the freedom to control the pace of how we learn and teach. -Smaller classes: We cap our class at 15 students with a Lead and an Assistant. - More individual student focus: By only having 15 students, we are able to give each child more attention for things like fine motor development and table work. We offer before care with a cap of 9 students from 8am to 9am. - Personalized end of the year portfolios: Each child ends the year with a binder of memories from work created to pictures with friends for life long memories. Enrichment program options STEAM 1 day programs STEAM 3's program - Offered Thursdays from 9am to 1pm. Students learn fun projects through the lens of Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, Math.

Registration is offered first to our current families and if space allows then we make it available to the community. Tours Tours are required at Waypoint with the student present before enrolling with us. This allows for parents and students to become familiar with our teachers and our facility and starts the excitement for being in a school setting. Tours are set for Tuesday mornings between 9am and 11:00am. We look forward to meeting you and having you as part of the Waypoint family. Brian Durr Waypoint Preschool Director 904-395-3764
