Frequently Asked Questions
How do I enroll my Child?

After reviewing your information, we will contact you to schedule a phone call or tour when space becomes available.
Placement offers and enrollment instructions will be shared only after that step and as openings arise.
How old does my child need to be to attend Sunshine Preschool & Pre-K?
They must be 3 or older before 8/31.
What ages are your Classes?
At Sunshine Preschool & Pre‑K, our work is rooted in helping children develop the skills and confidence they need for a successful transition to kindergarten. Our mixed‑age classrooms, serving children ages 3–5, create a collaborative learning environment where younger and older students grow together in ways that traditional, separate classes cannot provide.
Kindergarten readiness extends far beyond letters and numbers. Social development, emotional confidence, communication skills, and problem‑solving abilities are equally essential. During their two years with us, children have the time and support to grow in all of these areas while we build strong, meaningful relationships with them. By the time they begin kindergarten, the only things that feel new are the building and the teacher, because they already have the skills, confidence, and foundation they need to thrive.
