Preschool Information & FAQs
SHEEP Event Calendar

Our Summerville Preschool classes currently meet on Thursdays. 

All children must be fully potty trained and 3 years old by September 1st to join SHEEP classes.
Preschool classes require adult assistants. Please contact us if you would like more information on assisting!

**All classes listed on this page as K3-K5 require enrolled students to be dropped off and picked up at the preschool desk. Although we specify preschoolers, this can include Kindergartners if they end the day in any of the K3-K5 classes below**
Preschool Pickup and Drop Off Policy:

Parents are required to drop their preschool child/children off at the preschool desk. This desk is located in the foyer of the main building
(see map HERE). You will need to come in the Front Door, located under the awning, to access the Preschool Check-in desk.  On the first day, if you have not already picked up your students badge during Meet the Teacher, you will need to pick up their name badge on a lanyard at the front desk.  If your child/children have a yellow lanyard, they must be checked-in, checked-out, and picked up at the Preschool desk.  

Your child will be checked in using our SHEEP Portal and a Preschool SHEEP staff member will take your child/children to their first class. If your child has more than one class at SHEEP they will be escorted from one class to another by a staff member. Children will be returned to the preschool desk when their classes end. Your child will be checked out when you arrive to pick them up.  

Our preschool and kindergarten classes overlap significantly. If a child ends their day in a class that we have specified as “preschool”, that child needs to be picked up at the preschool desk. We do not have the ability to filter out kindergartners and release them separately for pick up.

Please make sure your child wears his name tag lanyard every day of classes for the entire school year. Please do not allow your child to put stickers or anything on their badge that will cover the QR code, their name, emergency contact information, or class schedule.

Please note, only Parents or Authorized Adults can pick up preschool students. Siblings may not check out preschool students.
