Early Childhood

You don’t have to choose between a nurturing environment and challenging academics... at Wilson, you get both!

Each class of our youngest students is taught by two full-time faculty members in lovely, light-filled spaces with direct access to a playground, as well as by our specialists in French, PE, and the Arts. Our little learners also have lots of time for self-directed exploration and play. The result? Children who love coming to school! “Monday Morning” can be happy
words in your home.
