Red Door Early Learning Center offers STEAM based early childhood school programs.
Our STEAM activities are designed to prepare children to think analytically, solve problems and work in partnerships on multi-day and multi-week projects.
At Red Door, students are actively engaged and receive explicit phonics instruction, small group writing directives, and explore concepts of math. Our program is aligned with the Standards of Education and our students generate portfolios to show individual growth. The best part is….this is all accomplished through play, which fosters a love of learning!!
Red Door is a Non-Profit, Private Academic Preschool governed by the Department of Education.
Red Door invites only the finest faculty to join our team. Our teaching staff is required to have a minimum of a 4-year degree in Elementary and/or Early Childhood Education as well as participate in ongoing professional development to ensure our programs and practices are the most current in today’s growing world.

PRIMER (3-4 Years of age)
During the earliest years of preschool, our Primers will discover and use this discovery to create and inquire about all areas of life around them. Our focus will be teaching children shapes, numbers, colors, and letter recognition, pre-writing skills, and phonemic awareness. These areas of focus will be integrated daily into our project-based units of study so students can explore them in intentional and meaningful ways. Social-emotional components will be fostered through mindfulness approaches to learning. Our curriculum aligns to the standards for Early Childhood Education. It has been approved by the Department of Education.
Our Primer Full Day Program also offers what we call Primer Part Two! This is for full day children. This program enriches what your child has learned in the morning. It also provides extra read alouds, art projects as well as additional opportunities for social interaction and emotional growth.
