New Canaan Community Preschool has been providing child care services for the families of New Canaan since the 1940s. This is a non-profit organization governed by the school's board of directors.
New Canaan Community Preschool is guided by the project approach. The children direct the curriculum and pick topics of special interest to themselves, which enables them to build upon their own passions and existing knowledge. This school embraces the individuality of each student and aims to create a stimulating environment that develops each child as a whole.
