The Jane P.B. and Peter Hollenbeck Preschool

For nearly a century, Ridgewood School has been at the forefront of quality education in our community. This hallmark defines our new preschool as well.

​

Come meet our highly qualified staff and tour our expanded facilities. Allow us the chance to convince you that true learning can’t be confined solely to a classroom setting. In that regard, our ‘little school in the woods’ is housed on a five-acre campus equipped with a wooded land lab, spacious playground, a learning garden, and an outdoor theater space.

​

Led by Mrs. Gail Suzel, our preschool program offers a developmentally appropriate, individualized curriculum that is project-based, with student direction and teacher facilitation. It is presented in an environment that encourages discovery and exploration, and occurs in a playful surrounding where children can develop meaningful relationships with peers and adults. It is through these means that we spark the lifelong love of learning.

​

Become a part of our future. Become a part of the Ridgewood family, where diversity and effort are valued and the act of learning is revered. Our new Jane P.B. and Peter Hollenbeck Preschool is available five days a week, with both half-day and full-day options.

“I have to say in all honesty that Ridgewood has given our children everything we wanted and more. It is a safe and loving environment that has helped our children blossom and develop beautifully. The teachers and staff of Ridgewood School have played a very important role in our children’s lives, and we truly appreciate all of them.”
