The preschool years represent a distinctive time of growth and change in a child's development. MIS's preschool program meets the needs of the young child by balancing opportunities to develop the whole child--the intellectual, the social and the personal; as each is important and linked to the others. Young children are full of curiosity and develop theories of the how the world around them works as they grow. MIS nurtures this natural curiosity and preschool teachers support efforts to construct meaning from their world. MIS preschool students explore, investigate and play with a variety of materials, in order to learn about themselves and others.

MIS preschool families may choose two options for their preschool student's schedule: Monday through Friday full day (from 8:45a.m.-3:00p.m.) or Monday through Friday half day (from 8:45a.m.-11:30p.m.). Half day preschool students may choose to stay for lunch (for an additional charge).
