CTE Preschool Labs

Our Philosophy

The Jordan School District Preschool Labs are an educational setting for community children and a teaching laboratory for high school students interested in exploring the early childhood education teaching field. 

Our mission is to offer a high-quality preschool that works to ensure every preschooler learns, grows in a nurturing and fun environment, setting the foundation for a lifelong love of education and success in school and life.

Our primary goals include teaching children to:

  • Grow in understanding and appreciation of their friends
  • Learn to listen and follow directions
  • Enjoy creative expression through music, art, and other activities
  • Develop gross motor skills along with body and space awareness
  • Think and make choices for individual and small group activities
  • Feel confident, secure, and loved in the school setting
  • Develop a lifelong love for learning and exploration

We all share a common philosophy that children learn best when they can actively interact with their environment.  We share a common commitment to helping each child develop fully – physically, socially, emotionally, and cognitively.  Each child is valued as a unique individual.  Children can explore the materials, solve problems, develop skills, increase knowledge, or be creative in ways that help them to solidify their abilities at one level to be ready to move on to the next.  The teachers engage with the children in ways that develop strong language skills.  All activities are developmentally appropriate and allow children to engage in activities at their own levels.  Every child is able to develop fully according to his/her own interests and capabilities.
