Seeking 4 Yr. Old Preschool Within 15 Miles of Roseville for Fall

My son goes to Trinity Lutheran at Hall and Van Dyke. He's in the 3 yr old preschool. The tuition for 4 yr preschool is 127.00. 4yr olds, 3 yr olds, and 5 yr olds are all separate. My son will also be in the 4 yr old preschool next fall too! 4 yr preschool is 3 days a week mon, wed, fri. We love it there! They do have field trips to the cider mill, nature center, and a couple of others. The room is very large with climbing toys, a pretend area, lot's of play space. They have circle time, Jesus time, snack, gym, library, and a project. I believe they also have chapel twice a month. It's in an actual school setting, not a daycare setting, which I like. His teacher has been there for a very long time. She is VERY good! We are very pleased with it. In fact, I just became a member of the church there because we like it so much. We anticipate sending both of our children there through 8th grade, God willing. Good luck!

Hi J.,

I also live in Roseville. I teach the Parent-Toddler class at the Troy Co-op Preschool and my son will be attending the 3's class in the fall.

I think it's about 15 miles from Roseville, it usually takes me about 30 minutes to get there.

I guess I'm bias because I work there, but there is no other place I would send my child! I just love co-op's in general. It's so nice that you don't just drop your child off at the door without being allowed to go into the classroom. I also love the option to work in the classroom on a monthly basis and to participate in fieldtrips and holiday celebrations! It feels more like a family then a school.

Mrs. Teagan has been teaching at the school for 35 years and her daughter, Mrs. Rumel, has been there for 10 years. Please check out the website and go in for a visit! www.troycooppreschool.com

I know there are also Co-op Preschools in St. Clair Shores & Grosse Pointe.

what about faith lutheran church in troy.. itis at 16 mile and dequindre in troy..

It is fairly inexpensive.. the room is bright and cheery..it is a coop so you get a discount if you help in the class..

I do not know if the teachers have degrees. I do not know if they offer afternoon classes.

I almost did a mom and tot class there..

Try Trinity Lutheran in Clinton Township. They have an excellent and reasonable program. Good luck!

Check out St. Germaine's in St. Clair Shores. I believe it meets everything you are looking for. The have separate 3 and 4 preschool. They have a separate building for preschool, larger than a normal class room. They do 2 field trips (with parents). There is a main teacher and an assistant at all times and then another teacher who comes in off and on and they encourage parent involvement for certain activities. I went to an open house there recently and thought it was great and loved the teachers. I also had 3 families recommend it to me. They have a few camps in the summer that you could send your son to try it out also.
I also heard that Trinity Lutheran had a good program.

St. Peter's Lutheran in Eastpointe opened a brand new Early Childhood Center last fall. My daughter is currently enrolled and we couldn't be happier there. The staff is great as is the curriculum. It is Christ-centered with the kids having chapel once a week and Jesus time in their classrooms. There are also a couple field trips for the 4 year olds. They are definitely worth checking out if you haven't done so already.

I would highly recommend Redeemer Preschool on Jefferson between 12 & 13 Mile. I sent both of my girls there and they were prepped for Kindergarten and loved the teachers. The teachers were nurturing and made the class fun everyday. It is a Christian based program and I just couldn't say enough good things about it. They don't do fieldtrips but that didn't bother me. Also, the class ratio is a little larger than your looking for, but they do have an aide. Good luck in your search!
