About Old Fountain Academy Preschool in Lawrenceville, GA

Old Fountain Academy Preschool and Child Care is a premier state-of-the-art facility, for ages six weeks through twelve years of age.

Every parent wants to make sure their child is being taught and looked after by caring and responsible adults. Our staff exceeds those criteria; they are highly qualified, experienced, and knowledgeable individuals in the child care profession.

We are committed to bringing the community the best child care available with careful planning and thoughtful consideration to every detail, and always keeping the parents informed, and always listening to the parents. We will work with your family to ensure your child’s safety, development, happiness, and success. We want to give our students a strong sense of self concept by assisting them in all areas of their development: physical, social, emotional, and intellectual: also, to understand and respect each child’s uniqueness. We hope for partnership between parents and the center that will allow for the optimum level of early learning.

Our Philosophy

Our philosophy at Old Fountain Academy Preschool and Childcare is to provide high quality childcare by furnishing a clean, safe, and structured environment that will lead to serving our families best by giving them the most effective combination of quality child care and early learning. We pride ourselves by setting a Higher Standard.

Our Goal

Our goal is to provide childcare services that prepare your child for the future. We will ensure a safe and fun learning experience here at Old Fountain Academy. We also know that children do their most important learning before the age of five that is why we touch your child’s life with lots of love, attention, and all that goes along with early childhood learning. An essential part of meeting our goal is parent involvement and support.

Discovering

We begin with age-appropriate environments and activities that encourage children to learn, play and explore. Most importantly, at the heart of every project and activity, there’s a specially trained teacher and an age-appropriate curriculum to lead the way. Children need hands-on experiences and teachers that will get-on-the-floor to teach and play. Children need enthusiasm and encouragement. Most of all, they need the joy and challenge of doing it themselves because that’s what helps them learn and grow.

Learning

During our educational morning program, academic lessons are introduced and completed with art projects, music, finger plays, blocks, and classroom activities.  Children also enjoy exploring their classroom, learning centers, snacks and outdoor play.  Our afternoon enrichment activities enhance our already stimulating curriculum and include art and science projects, special activities, and games, physical fitness activities designed for muscle development.

Infants and Toddlers

Love, nurturing, safety, security, one-on-one interaction and a stimulating environment are all at the heart of our infant program.  Our infant/teacher ratio is kept as small as possible to ensure that your child receives all the attention he or she deserves.

Two and Three Year Olds

Two year olds are terrific learners, with an amazing amount of energy and an eagerness to try new things. Our curriculum program for our two year olds emphasizes continued verbal development and early math concepts. It also focuses on socialization skills, small/large muscle control, music, art and dramatic play, among other fun and challenging activities.

Three year olds are eager to learn during this important developmental period. Our curriculum also focuses on self-esteem, self worth, developing creative and social skills. Our teachers are excellent with providing fun and challenging activities which will stimulate mind development, creativity and physical fitness.

Private Pre-K

Preschoolers are ready with eagerness and ability to learn, we have very carefully selected our curriculum that combines exciting teacher-directed instruction with stimulating child-centered explorations. Our learning program gives young learners the critical skills and experiences they need to form a solid learning foundation. It fosters children’s cognitive, social and emotional development by emphasizing skills such as reading, language, math, science, social studies, music, technology, fine/gross motor skills, and personal and social development all in a hands-on, interactive and enjoyable way. Our program also meets and exceeds the requirements of Early Reading First and No child Left Behind Act. In order to ensure your child’s success in school and beyond our literacy-based program continues to pave the way for school.

Georgia Pre-K

Georgia’s Pre-K Program is a lottery funded educational program for Georgia’s four year olds to prepare children for Kindergarten. Children four years of age on September 1 of the current school year who are Georgia residents are eligible to attend Georgia’s Pre-K Program during this school year.

School Age Program

We offer an engaging before and after school program for elementary school aged children. Our school-age program goes way beyond before and aftercare. We continue our curriculum-based approach to learning and fun, helping children succeed in school. Homework help, exciting projects, outdoor play and fun with friends make time go fast, and we provide transport to and from the following elementary schools:

  • Dyer Elementary 

  • Ft.Daniel Elementary

  • Freemans Mill Elementary

  • Dacula Elementary

  • Woodward Mill Elementary

We offer school-age children a balance of down time, structured activities and individual hands-on exploration. It’s just what they need to unwind and stretch their minds and muscles. Besides offering homework assistance, teachers play Brain Games with students. These games help children practice critical thinking skills. Children can rotate with friends among learning centers planned just for them – whether it is science, building, art, library, or games. Children will get plenty of exercise enjoying the outdoors, perhaps running on the playground, or playing a game of basketball.

We would love to show you our amazing preschool. Contact us today to set up a visit!
