Friendship Station Preschool Open House

You and your child are invited to the Friendship Station Preschool Open House, which is a great opportunity to meet our teachers, see our fun and educational classrooms, and learn why this program is trusted and loved by families throughout Geneva Park District! Resident registration for the 2027-28 school year begins in February. Limited openings for the current school year are also available. Who We Serve Friendship Station Preschool offers a variety of options for 3-year-olds and 4/5-year-olds. Some sessions offer the opportunity for extended days, and we also offer themed Enrichment Classes to extend the learning and play experience. How We Serve In keeping with the guidelines of Illinois State Board of Education (ISBE) Standards regarding early learning and literacy, our preschool program will provide appropriate activities to enhance the literacy of the young child. Support for all children will be provided by loving, knowledgeable staff in a collaborative working partnership with each family. Our lead teachers all have Bachelor of Arts degrees in early childhood education or a related field and receive ongoing training. Our Philosophy Friendship Station Preschool is guided by the philosophy of learning through play. Children learn to share, create, cooperate, interact, and solve problems in a supportive and interesting environment. Because each child is individual and unique, emphasis is placed on developing a positive self-image and kindergarten readiness skills.
