Little Stars Preschool

HistoryJust Little People Preschool opened in 1991 with the full day ( 8:00 - 4:30) preschool in NE Portland, and then opened the half day (8:30-12:30) preschool in 2004. Both preschools are inspired by the schools of Reggio Emilia Italy, and have 6 early childhood teachers on staff between the two locations.SpecialtiesWe share the image of children as being creative, resourceful, powerful, and capable human beings. Our learning environment invites their curiosity and the excitement of discovery in the areas of: art, science, math, dramatic play, and music. We encourage children to explore, touch, and experience the world around them.

We believe that children learn best when they explore and discover on their own, constructing their knowledge through hands-on experiences & problem solving
