Welcome to Saint Columbkille Partnership School, the only lab school in Boston for pre-K to grade 8 students. We are among a small group of schools across the world with a unique and strong collaboration with a leading research university, allowing for a tailored and more thoughtful approach to your child's education. We attract brilliant teachers, fearless learners and forward-thinking families. The Early Childhood Program at Saint Columbkille is where young students encounter the joys of learning, discovery and growth. The program is grounded in a curriculum that encourages purposeful play and social development. A rich academic curriculum designed by the Lynch School of Education and Human Development at Boston College ensures learners will have the skills necessary to be successful in elementary school. Teachers are exceptionally qualified and have or are working toward masters degrees in early childhood education. Small class size and support from assistants allow teachers to know each child in their classroom, to understand an appropriately respond to their academic and social needs, and to communicate regularly with families about their child's progress. As children grow socially and intellectually within a comprehensive and integrated curriculum, they are introduced to the elements of Catholic education exploring biblical themes while learning that they have a responsibility for others. The pre-K 2.9 program is for students who will turn three by December 1. The pre-K program is for 3-year-old students and the K1 program is for 4-year-old students. All programs are full day.

5 Alwin Street Hyde Park, MA

My program combines the structure and schedule of a typical preschool classroom with the comfort of a home environment. This helps children prepare for a transition into a kindergarten classroom. There is sensory play such as play dough or finger painting, time for pre-academics with letter and math games, read alouds, storytelling/story acting and other pre-writing activities. We spend a lot of time outdoors at two nearby parks to encourage free play and exploration and gross motor movement. We will have daily whole group meetings and activities as well as plenty of time for independent and group play. I encourage kids to step outside their comfort zone and try new things, even if it's hard. Maintaining routines and order is greatly beneficial and something I take seriously. Having clear and consistent boundaries and expectations makes everyone feel safe and respected. But while I firmly believe in structures and routines, there will be plenty of time for spontaneity and lots of fun! What is NeighborSchools? NeighborSchools helps experienced caregivers launch and operate licensed home daycares in Massachusetts. With better ratios and experienced caretakers, home daycare allows for more individualized attention for infants and toddlers. As a parent, you get a trusted partner for the long-term care of your child, right in your neighborhood, at a price you can afford.
