Class Information and Tuition

*Young 2s Class: For Barrow Street Siblings Only. This class is a slow separation class where parents or caregivers gently separate throughout the first few months of class. 

The 2s/3s classes focus on your toddler's growing independence and language development. Educational research shows that emotional security is crucial to the foundation of learning. Our 2s/3s program is designed to stimulate children’s social, physical and cognitive development while safeguarding that security through the separation process.Some 5-day students may go on into the 4s/5s class the following year depending on the best fit for your child. Barrow Street works with families to determine class placements on an individual basis with families.

Our 3s/4s classes emphasize decision-making, independent choice and responsibility, and social skills through communication. Through engagement of each child’s uniqueness, teacher’s support the development of academic skills, foster each child’s creativity and artistic expression and help children build secure relationships within the school community.

Our 4s/5s  classes support observation, organization and problem-solving skills as children transition to symbolic expression. Our emergent curriculum inspires curiosity and helps build an intrinsic motivation, love of learning and presents many opportunities for  problem-solving. The curricular areas provide the foundation upon which the academic areas of literacy, mathematics, science and social studies are established. In this way, children are prepared for their next educational experiences.
