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.
We believe in giving our students every opportunity, experience, and devote all of our efforts to help each child reach his or her maximum learning potential.
Age Requirements
Red Door is a Private Academic Preschool. We do look at the whole child when making determinations for programs. All preschool children must come to school in underwear. Our staff does not change diapers for our 3-6-year-old programs. We will work with your child on bathroom skills. We do however accommodate that need for our twos.

Primer Half Day and Full Day (3 by September 1st)
4 & 5 day Half Day AM/PM and Full Day
During the earliest years of preschool, our Primers will discover, 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. A great portion of our curriculum is centered around emotions, advocacy and language. Our curriculum aligns to the standards for Early Childhood Education. It has been approved by the Department of Education.
Our Primer Full Day Program 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 opportunities to play with letters and sounds, new art projects as well as additional opportunities for social interaction and emotional growth. You can choose to have your child nap here at Red Door or continue with learning experiences during the second half of the day in the Primer classroom.

PreK Plus (Completed PreK or Recommended to program by Primer Teacher)
4 Day Full Day or 5 Day Full Day
PreK plus is for eligible students who would benefit from staying at Red Door in a small class environment but are receiving both the social-emotional benefit of a PreK classroom combined with more challenging Kindergarten academic skills. This program is designed for children who have completed a PreK program or are recommended to this classroom by their Primer teacher. Some families also use this program as a “gift year” to see if their child can confidently build kindergarten skills and feel successful in the learning environment before moving onto a different school. Here at Red Door we tailor this program for each child’s needs. This looks like a half day in a PreK classroom building social-emotional skills and then transitioning to the PreK Plus program in the PM for supported, more challenging academic work.
Whatever your child’s needs may be, we can tailor this program to ensure your child is mastering the skills needed for a successful start to school. Our curriculum is aligned to the PA Standards. Our certified teacher works closely with educational professionals in the surrounding community to ensure the children are prepared for their next educational step.

Why do YOU love Red Door?
Kindergarten (recommended 5 by September 1st- and/or call to discuss the age cut-off)
5 day Half Day and Full Day
Red Door’s Kindergarten Program is an accredited program through the Pennsylvania Department of Education. It aligns with all state standards. All of the programs used to support our curriculum are congruent with surrounding school districts to ensure the language used to teach early reading skills are the same once the children move on to their next choice of school.
The focus will be on early reading skills, concepts of math and applying mathematical concepts to everyday life. Our Science and Social Studies Units of study allow children to learn through hands- on activities that support language, inquisition and cognitive development. The classroom is supported by two teachers, keeping our student to teacher ratio low so we can reach each and every student where he/she is building confidence and skills needed to be successful in first grade.
If you are interested in a half day program, your child may be placed into the PM classroom. This determination will be made based on enrollment. Your child may move onto first grade after completing this program.
