Chandler-Newberger Play School (Ages 2-5)

The Play School program offered at the Chandler-Newberger Center is designed to offer a warm and supportive atmosphere where your child will be free to learn and grow. Daily class activities include free play, story time, circle time, creative play and organized activities. The program for 3-5 year olds is a perfect compliment to a traditional preschool program, giving families a few extra hours a week needed to run errands or even have some "me" time. Families can also sign up for multiple classes and create a preschool experience for their child. The program for 2-3 year olds allows children to explore their classroom, participate in activities and make new friends with the security of having someone they know close by.

Robert Crown Preschool (Ages 2-5)

Robert Crown Center's preschool and after-school programs are licensed by the Illinois Department of Child and Family Services. The Take Two program (age 2 years without an adult) encourages your child's natural curiosity in a nurturing and active learning environment. The program is geared to the specific developmental milestones of 2-year-old children. The Creative Play program for 3-5 year olds is defined as "innovative play with purpose." A broad variety of both unique and traditional activities are offered, including music and movement and arts and crafts. Finally, the Dual Enrollment program for children age 4-5 years is designed for those children enrolled in School District 65 half-day programs. The goal of this program is to provide a full day of quality child care and enrichment for children attending Evanston Head start, Preschool for All and SPAAC programs.
