The GRYC Little Stars
Pre-K Program
The GRYC Little Stars Pre-K program services 4-year old children by
providing NYS mandated Universal Pre-Kindergarten. Currently, we
have six classrooms servicing 180 children for a total of 10 UPK
classes. The sessions are 8:15-10:45 and 11:45-2:15. We have
three classes housed at St. Pancras two in the morning and one
during the afternoon.
We teach children according to developmentally appropriate practices
as mandated by the NYC Department of Education Pre-School
Performance Standards. We focus on promoting the development of the
children cognitively, physically, emotionally and socially.
Literacy is a part of our learning environment. Multi Lingual
children come together and learn English through play and social
interaction. We lay the foundation for all of their future
learning.
Our program is FREE to parents due to our funding, which comes from
New York State, through the NYC Dept. of Education.
During the summer months we continue the learning process at our
Summer Learning Experiences Day camp, offered to children between
the ages of 4-6. We provide a safe, fun, summer experience, where
children can participate in trips, arts and crafts, outdoor and
indoor games, and interact with their peers. Many parents use this
as an opportunity to prepare their child for school!
