Preschool

PreschoolAfter two years of research and study, followed by a year of successfully piloting preschools at both Bellevue and Carey Elementary Schools, the Blaine County School District Board of Trustees unanimously approved the expansion of preschools to all District elementary schools.

Preschool for four-year old children is provided on a fee basis at these elementary schools:  Carey, Bellevue, Hailey, y Hemingway. 

Mission

Preschool2The mission of the Blaine County School District Preschool Programs is to enhance the child’s social, emotional, physical and intellectual growth by involvement in developmentally appropriate learning experiences that will build a positive self-concept and provide a base for future learning success.

We Believe ...

Parents are the child’s first teacher.  We believe it is the joint responsibility between home and school to guide children’s intellectual, physical, social, and emotional development.  A safe, nurturing, and respectful environment is necessary to address different cultures, learning styles, strengths, needs, and developmental rates.  Early school experiences should include opportunities for active exploration, creativity, and discovery through a multisensory approach.  Children participating in the Blaine County Preschools will gain independence, knowledge, problem-solving skills, and a broader understanding of the world around them.
