Wurzelkinder

Wurzelkinder is an innovative pre-school and pre-K whose mission is to accelerate children’s academic growth while nurturing their social-emotional development. The program, which provides children with a solid moral compass, encourages them to become lifelong learners, and has a strong cultural connection to the German language. At the same time, we offer students ownership over their own educational journey. This practice has the benefit of giving bilingual children a broader cultural awareness. Our small-group setting creates a safe harbor for your child, away from home. To learn more about Wurzelkinder please visit Wurzelkinder.
