Our Difference
More Than Early Education
At Appletree Preschool, we believe early childhood education extends beyond academics. What truly sets us apart is the intentional community we’ve built across New Jersey, combined with a strong focus on social-emotional development and meaningful family partnerships.
Social-Emotional Learning at the Core
Social-emotional learning (SEL) is a foundational part of our program, especially in the early years. We intentionally support children in developing emotional awareness, self-regulation, empathy, and positive social skills, fostering resilience, communication, cooperation, and conflict-resolution skills.
Open Communication & Family Partnership
Strong relationships with families are essential to a child’s success. We maintain open, consistent communication through daily updates, regular check-ins, and easy access to teachers and administrators. We also offer family workshops, parent-teacher conferences, newsletters, and community events.
A Strong, Connected Community
Appletree is proud to be deeply rooted in the communities we serve. We bring families together through school-wide events and celebrations such as our Fall Market, Mother’s Day celebrations, and other family-centered experiences.
Why It Matters
At Appletree Preschool, children grow in an environment that prioritizes emotional well-being, meaningful relationships, and community connection. Families feel informed, valued, and confident — knowing their child is supported every step of the way.
