Murray Early Childhood Education preschool programs are designed to promote the development of the whole child and to offer a wide variety of experiences in the areas of social, emotional, academic and creative growth.

 
Our high-quality program is open to any child between the ages of 3 and 5.  You need not be a Murray resident to participate.  Transportation to and from school must be provided or arranged for by parents. Several options are available for children who are 4 (turning 5 during the school year) and 5-year-olds missing the Kindergarten deadline- September 1, 2024.  We offer morning classes that meet three days a week on Monday, Wednesday and Friday (mornings only), or four days a week on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday.  These classes meet from 9 – 11:30 a.m. Afternoon classes meet from 12:30 – 3:00 pm, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday & Thursday.  ALL classes for this age group focus on kindergarten readiness skills and provide a balance of teacher-directed and child-initiated activities. 

Classes for 3-year-old children (most of whom will turn 4 during the school year) meet two days a week on Tuesday and Thursday, morning or afternoon, or on Monday and Wednesday afternoons.  A three-day option also meets in the mornings on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. Morning classes meet from 9 – 11:30 a.m. and afternoon classes meet from 12:30 – 3:00 p.m. The emphasis for these children is socialization, self-help skills, and hands-on learning.

Registration is first-come, first-served and will remain open as long as space is available.
