SEA TURTLE EARLY LEARNING CENTER INFORMATION
Seaside's Sea Turtle Early Childhood programs nurture and protect childhood in a beautiful setting. Reflecting a deep belief that children’s natural creative play contains the cornerstones of academic ability. The rhythm of the school day flows between lively outside play with inside artistic and practical activities.
The full-day 8:30am to 3:30pm preschool offers classes for preschool age children up to 5 year-olds. The programs are child-centered and inspired by public Waldorf principles. Our credentialed teachers receive training in developmentally and culturally appropriate practices, including early childhood training through LifeWays North America. Tuition cost for this program is $825 a month with wrap around care provided.
We also offer a Voluntary Prekindergarten (VPK) for 4-year-olds who are 4 by September 1 of the current school year. The state funded VPK program provides 3 hours per day of instruction and requires an eligibility certificate from the Duval County Early Learning Coalition. For families of 4 year olds looking for a Waldorf program or needing full day care, we provide a full-day Waldorf wrap around program for our VPK students.
