The Trolley Preschool offers an Immersion based
Bilingual Program serving the needs of children
2-5, and their families. With a focus on a dual
language program, individual cognitive, social
and physical development, the bilingual teachers
and staff work towards the same mission:
Through an emergent bilingual curriculum and
culturally rich environment we nuture children,
preparing them to be successful
in life, confident learners and true friends.
Through constant exposure to the Spanish
language, cultural activities, games, songs and
books, children are developing oral language
skills in both English and Spanish

TROLLEY PRESCHOOL BILINGUAL PROGRAM
Program Activities:
Emphasis is placed on a well-rounded program of daily activities such as
phonics, pre-reading skills, Bible learning, free and structured play and
nap time. A routine is established to foster consistency and predictability
in the children's schedule.
Field trips and nature walks are a vital part of our educational program.
In conjunction with curriculum emphasis at pre-approved times, children
are taken to local sites such as libraries, parks, governmental
departments, and places of recreation in order to reinforce classroom
learning. During these outings, adequate adult supervision is maintained
to provide for the children's safety and enjoyment.
Permission for participation is documented as part of the

information concerning each outing.
