Preschool
At Caldwell Academy, we are dedicated to nurturing young hearts and minds with the timeless truths of a classical Christian education. Our preschool program offers a joyful, Christ-centered environment where your child will grow in both wisdom and character.
A key outcome of a classical education is the development of confident learners who love to explore and grow. How do we achieve this? It begins with ensuring that each child is developmentally ready for the next step in their educational journey. Our preschool classes are designed to help children build a solid foundation for academic success, fostering confident, eager learners who are excited about school.

Eagle Explorers (Ages 4 ½ - 5 ½)
Previously Transitional Kindergarten
We understand that many children enter Kindergarten without the readiness they need to succeed long-term. This is often not about academic skills but rather about being developmentally prepared for the challenges of school life. At Caldwell Academy, we aim to bridge this gap and give children the tools they need to thrive in their K-12 education.
