The Carol Stream Park District Preschool program has been a community tradition for over 40 years. Through education, recreation, and fun, our preschool program offers a balanced play-based learning approach perfect for first-time and returning students. Our passionate and experienced teachers are committed to working together to provide your child with the most enjoyable experience

We loved it! The kids learned so much and it showed. They were always eager to go to school and would chat nonstop about what they learned. Love the variety of gross motor options now available as well. -Carol Stream Preschool Parent

I was really nervous for my son to start preschool as he had never been away from me. On his first day the teachers took him by hand and made him comfortable. I think I had a harder time than he did. He enjoyed every second at school with his teachers and friends and I couldn’t thank them enough for preparing him for kindergarten and giving him the confidence he needed. - Carol Stream Preschool
