Director's Message

Thank you for considering the Hillsborough Preschool as an option for your child.  We understand that this is an extremely difficult decision for families and we are here to answer any of your questions or concerns as your child embarks on their educational journey.  I have been in education for over 22 years, and I am constantly humbled and amazed by what our staff provides to the children who participate in our program.  Their ability to understand the needs of each individual child and provide them the best of what they need is second to none.  They are also adept at helping parents with everything from potty training to behavior management to exploring new foods at home; fostering a relationship that lasts beyond your  child's tenure in the Hillsborough Preschools.

Our ability to provide your child with a program on an elementary campus cannot be overlooked.  Your child gets an advanced look at what it's like to be at the "big" school, and learn routines such as walking quietly on campus, using playground equipment, eating lunch in a cafeteria, and using the library.  We also provide a strong academic and social foundation for your children.  Through our blend of play-based and academics we strive to prepare our students for their next steps with our goal of readiness for Kindergarten.  We believe that our kids are ready socially, emotionally, and academically for what Kindergarten has to offer.

I encourage you to visit our program and see for yourself the amazing community of learning and friendship that our teachers have created.

Thank you!
