Preschool Program

As your child’s first school experience, Preschool provides a foundation for all learning. At The Albany Academy and Albany Academy for Girls – our Preschool Program provides the perfect mix of activities, experiences and opportunities, thus planting the seeds that will nurture your child’s development, curiosity and help them grow into lifelong learners.

Our faculty has a passion for what they do and it is contagious. They transform classrooms into fun, learning environments igniting your child’s love for learning. Students learn through active, meaningful interactions with peers, adults and materials. A wide-range of developmentally- appropriate activities provide opportunities for individual, small and large group instruction. A balance of indoor and outdoor activities, active and quiet play, child-centered and teacher-facilitated activities complete the day. Our facilities are outstanding and include spacious classrooms, an ice rink, swimming pool and a new outdoor playground.

Students also work with faculty that specializes in Physical Education, Music, Art, Library and Creative Movement exposing them to a world of possibilities. At The Albany Academies our Preschool students don’t just dream of becoming a dancer, scientist, athlete or artist, they become their dreams every day.

Please join us on January 24 for an Open House at The Albany Academies specifically designed for parents of children entering Preschool, Pre-K, and Kindergarten. To reserve a spot, please contact the Admissions Office at (518) 429-2300.
