Welcome!
Piedmont Progressive Preschool is a program for young children in the University Area. It was founded in 2001 by two mothers of preschoolers, who believe in a progressive philosophy of early childhood, and that the time and place are right for this type of preschool in our area. We are pleased to offer a special curriculum for two- through five-year-olds under the guidance of qualified, experienced teachers.
2008-2009 School year has begun
Welcome back PPP families and welcome new families!
Take the Zero Waste Lunch challenge
As an environmentally conscious school, we try to provide our children with natural materials, expose them to earth friendly activities and teach them respect for our world and the creatures in it.
We would like to build on those concepts by asking our parents to pack zero waste lunches.
What is a Zero Wast Lunch you ask? Simply put, it is a lunch that makes no trash. Everything you pack will be eaten, reused or recycled.
Here are some tips to get you started:
• Use a reusable insulated bag or lunch box instead or brown paper bag. No lunchables!
• Use reusable plastic containers that can be washed and used over and over, instead of using disposable plastic sandwich bags for sandwiches and snacks.
• Use a thermos or reusable jug instead of bottled soda or juice boxes.
• Use metal silverware or wash plastic utensils and reuse them instead of disposable utensils that are used once and thrown away.
• Use cloth napkins that can be laundered.
The Piedmont Progressive Preschool admits students of any race, color, national and ethnic origin to all the rights, privileges, programs, and activities generally accorded or made available to students of the school. It does not discriminate on the basis of race, color, national and ethnic origin, in administration of its educational policies, admissions policies, scholarship programs, and other school-administered programs.
