A Performing Arts Preschool With the Hours Families Need

At Stages Academy, the arts aren't an occasional enrichment activity; they're part of your child's everyday preschool experience.

 

Along with well-rounded academics, children spend their days dancing, making art, exploring music, participating in drama, getting outside, and learning through hands-on experiences.

​

Looking for a preschool that offers daycare-like hours?

 

Stages Academy provides families the full-day schedule they need while giving children a true performing arts preschool experience.

 

You can have a preschool where academics, dance, music, art, and drama are all part of every single day.

​

Our preschool programs are designed for children ages 2 through Pre-K and TK, with flexible 2-, 3-, 4-, or 5-day schedules and full-day hours. Children build the academic and social skills they need for kindergarten while also developing confidence, creativity, problem-solving skills, and a genuine love of learning.

​

It's a performing arts preschool first - with the full-day hours many families are looking for.

Performing Arts Preschool Program

Stages Academy is a full-day performing arts preschool program. 

 

Although our children have tons of fun, they are engaged and interacting with different teachers all day long. Whether it’s ballet with our Dance teacher, planting a garden, observing nature with our Science teacher, or piano lessons with our Music teacher, your child is active and engaged in learning throughout the day.

​

We welcome children who are actively working on potty training (wearing Pull-Ups) or children who are already potty trained from age 2 to age 5.  

 

Stages Academy is a year-round school that not only immerses your child in the performing and fine arts, but it also prepares them for Kindergarten and beyond by giving them a lifelong love of learning.

Small Classes.
More Individual Attention.

We intentionally keep our preschool classes smaller than Pennsylvania's allowable maximums.

 

We believe children learn better when their teachers have the time to really know them—how they learn, what they enjoy, where they need a little extra help, and what makes them excited to learn.

​

Our 2-year-old classes never exceed 6 students (the state maximum is 12); and 

​

Our 3- and 4-year-old classes never exceed 10 students (the state maximum is 20).
