About Us

The Braintree Integrated Preschool team is a dedicated group of certified special education teachers, paraeducators, and licensed therapists providing an exceptional preschool experience to children with and without special needs. Our program provides evidence-based programming aligned with the Massachusetts Curriculum Frameworks and Common Core Standards to prepare children for kindergarten.

Our team is committed to nurturing the development of each and every child so that they may succeed to the best of their ability. We celebrate difference, diversity, and determination. At the Braintree Integrated Preschool, we reach for the stars!


Mission

The mission of the Braintree Schools, in partnership with parents and the community, is to prepare all students to become responsible and contributing members of a diverse and global society. We motivate and enable each student to develop intellectually, physically, socially, and emotionally through a rigorous and supportive educational program with an inclusive and safe environment that nurtures creative and critical thinking, the development of values, and the pursuit of lifelong learning.

The Braintree Integrated Preschool supports this mission by helping each and every child achieve to the best of their ability. This handbook provides an overview of our procedures and policies. It is important to review the handbook as the information will help you and your child access all that we have to offer. Please sign and return the sheet at the back of the handbook regarding permissions and receipt of the handbook. We suggest that you keep the handbook for useful reference. Our team is so pleased that you chose to share your child’s preschool experience with us!


Philosophy & Objectives

At the Braintree Integrated Preschool, we play with a purpose! We provide a comprehensive education using evidence-based methods. Our program is taught by certified special education teachers.

We are supported by:


Parental Involvement

We encourage parents to be active participants in their child's education. We hold open houses, back to school, and literacy nights for families. We have multiple opportunities to volunteer as a librarian or guest reader. During Read Across America we ask parents with community helper jobs to join us for a visit, career, and story sharing.

Classroom teachers send home newsletters with activities and the current themes that you can help your child with at home. If you have questions or would like to volunteer, then please contact us! We have an active parent-teacher-organization (PTO) that sponsors activities and supports the preschool in providing an enriching educational experience for all of our students. Please contact your child's teacher if you would like to participate in our PTO.
