Welcome to preschool at ADM! Housed in Adel Elementary, ADM’s preschool program is currently offered to four year-old children who are of age prior to September 15th of the current school year. ADM’s Preschool is a part of the Statewide Voluntary Preschool Program. Our program educates four year old students in our community in a free preschool setting prior to their elementary school years. Our instruction is based on a research and inquiry-based curriculum designed for three and four-year-olds. The opportunity to address early literacy, mathematics and social skills instruction provides a solid foundation for continued learning in future years. I look forward to partnering with you in the start of your child’s educational journey in our preschool program!
Sincerely,
Kim Anderson
Adel Elementary Principal
