Due to a public emergency related to COVID-19, many of our scheduled programs and events have been affected. Please note that effective March 13, 2020, all Family Resource Center programs and events are suspended until further notice.
The KinderRHAMa Preschool Program is located at RHAM High School in Hebron. The purpose of this program is to provide a nurturing, safe, stimulating and developmentally appropriate environment for children ages 3 through 5. In addition, this program provides High School students with an understanding of child development through our partnership with the RHAM Child Development Program.
More information coming soon!
For specific information about the program, please contact Becky Murray at 860-228-0871 or BeckyM@ahmyouth.org. This program is open to families who live or work in the towns of Andover, Hebron, Marlborough & Columbia.
We currently have openings for the 2019-2020 year in both of our 3 and 4 year old programs.
For students starting during the school year, tuition amounts will be prorated based on the number of weeks left in the school year. For more information or questions, please contact Becky Murray at 860-228-0871 or BeckyM@ahmyouth.org.
Our preschool is staffed by two trained teachers and follows the State of CT Early Developmental Guidelines (CT ELDS) in planning and implementing curriculum. These skills are interwoven into the school day and children have opportunities to work on them consistently while engaged in play.
Daily activities include art, circle time, blocks and building, stories, science activities, and outside time. There are several family events held each year including family brunches, a hayride and an end of the year picnic. Parents are invited into the classroom at any time to observe, facilitate an activity or to read a story to the children!
Our preschool provides RHAM High School students taking Child Development and Child Psychology Classes, with an understanding of child development through observation and interaction. This supplements students’ book learning with hands on experience in the preschool classroom. High school students are a wonderful addition to our program helping preschoolers with small group and individual activities.
KinderRHAMa is located within the RHAM High School building. Our location provides many enrichment opportunities for little ones. Some of these have included sitting in the big auditorium to hear band and chorus concerts, viewing beautifully constructed gingerbread houses by the Foods Classes, and seeing newly hatched chicks in the Genetics Lab.
Current and future parents, please reference our 2019-2020 KinderRHAMa Parent Handbook for helpful information, including the school calendar.
This program is open to families who live or work in the towns of Andover, Hebron, Marlborough and Columbia.
