2011-2012 School Year Openings!
We have a limited number of openings in our Reds class (Ages 4 and 5) for the current school year.  Tours can be scheduled through the same email address above.

If you weren't able to make it to the Open House, you can still take a tour of the school, pick up an application form for Fall 2011, and talk to the Membership committee about our lovely preschool. Please email us at  This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. or call 703-938-3588 for more information.

Please send in your personalized paver orders as soon as possible. Each paver brings us a step closer to reaching our goal of $20,000 for the Playground Project. An even easier method to help Meekins is by clicking on the "Donate" button below which will take you to PayPal. Do it for the children. Giving makes you feel good. Tis the season. Nothing is better than the sound of a child's laughter. You don't want to make me cry. It's a great tax deduction. Thanks!

The Playground Project got off to a seriously good start at NovemberFest! There was stiff competition in the chili cook-off (thanks Paula & congrats Dave!), tons of amazing cupcakes (thanks Alex!), an enlightening beer tasting by Beerman Extraordinaire Dr. Lewis (cheers Dr. Lewis!), and a bonfire that kept us all toasty warm.

Our paver fundraiser, "Pave the Way for Play" has officially started! Help us raise $20,000 before the end of 2011. It's a great way to leave your personalized mark on the pathway and give back to your favorite preschool. Check out the Events & Fundraising section for more information.

Immediate openings for ages 4 and 5 for the upcoming 2010-2011 school year!

There are openings in our M4 and M5 classes for this year. Contact us at This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. to schedule a tour and to see firsthand why "learning through play" is the way that preschoolers learn best.
