Little Lights
Where curiosity shines and young minds grow every day. Preparing children for kindergarten through joyful learning and discovery.
Our Little Lights
By this time, your child has learned a great deal about the world around them; they are more familiar with their unique place in life. Needs-based interaction fades and a strong desire to contribute becomes more apparent.
Your child understands social interaction, accepts and participates in routines, and makes decisions based on learned behaviors. This is an exciting time! Your child begins to reason more and more on how and why things happen each day, where his place is in it, and how to cope with change.
A strong desire to contribute & explore
The Nebo Crossing Junior Academy Preschool Program is designed to leverage the skills and understanding learned in earlier programs against new challenges and teaching.
Our Pre-school curriculum and classrooms are designed to conduct a structured learning environment coupled with large and small group learning times.

Large group learning is a time of teaching recognition of upper and lower case letters, pronunciation of letters, counting and recognition of numbers, review of shapes and colors, teaching primary and secondary colors, sign language and Spanish, teaching theme related topics, and much more.
