Enrichment
We typically run 3 sessions of Enrichment Classes through the school year. Each class is $150 for the full 8 week session. If you’ve already paid for lunch on that particular day and wish to add an enrichment class, the cost is $90 per class. With the exception of the Friday Books & Cooks class, classes run during the lunch hour (11:15-12:30), so be sure to send a parent-packed (nut free) lunch and drink for your child.

Sing & Play (all ages welcome)
Come sing and play with your friends! We’ll have lunch, sing and play with instruments. We’ll explore rhythm and movement and, most importantly, have fun!
Science (ages 3.5 and up)
We’ll explore the wonders of science, develop science skills and learn about earth, life, and physical science topics through fun individual, small group and whole class activities.
Artists in Action (ages 3.5 and up)
This lunchtime enrichment program is an art appreciation program for preschoolers modeled on the TIC TOC program that is active in the elementary schools in Glen Rock, Radburn in Fair Lawn, Ridgewood, Midland Park and Ho-Ho-Kus. Each week, “art docent” Mrs. Dalton will bring in a framed copy of a famous work of art from TIC TOC’s rotating art collection. The goals are to introduce children to famous works of arts; to teach them how to actively explore a work of art; and to see themselves as artists in action.
Build & Create (ages 3.5 and up)
Following a thematic story over lunch, students will have an opportunity to explore and create with various building materials, such as wooden unit blocks, Cuisenaire rods and lego, while developing mathematical, spatial and social skills. For example, students will listen to the story of “The Three Little Pigs” and will use their inspiration and imagination to build what they consider to be a sturdy structure.
Books & Cooks (ages 3.5 and up)
Books & Cooks will encourage your child’s love for reading along with introducing measurements, kitchen safety and simple recipe directions. Each week your child will be introduced to a different story book and then create recipes based on theme of the week.
Spanish for Muchacos (ages 3 and up)
A wonderful class that introduces children to the Spanish language and culture! The teachers will have fun teaching Spanish through games, songs, and stories. Led by Mrs. Montgomery and Mrs. Dalton.
