What makes the George Walton Academy Early Learning Program so special?
At George Walton Academy, our Early Learning Program is more than a preschool — it is the first step on your child’s academic journey, preparing them not only for kindergarten but for college and for life.
Where Big Futures Begin with Little Steps
Whole-Child Development
We nurture curious minds and kind hearts in a multi-age, inclusive learning environment designed for children in K3 and K4.
Small Class Sizes
Each class is capped at no more than 16 students with two teachers in every classroom, ensuring every child receives individual attention and care.
Experienced, Passionate Teachers
Our dedicated staff brings a wealth of teaching experience, fostering a nurturing and challenging environment where children flourish.
Exploratory Learning
Through hands-on exploration, structured play, free play and valuesbased education, our youngest learners grow with confidence, creativity, and compassion, supported
by a rich daily schedule that includes lunch, art, Spanish, story time, music sessions, purposeful movement and dramatic play. Students will take “field trips” to explore our expansive 61 acre campus.
Safe, Secure Learning Environment
Our campus features a gated entrance, real-time crisis alert badges, and a visitor system requiring background checks.
