PRESCHOOL

Our Spanish-immersion preschool program serves children ages 2-5 years old. 

We provide a Spanish-immersion educational experience that meets children where they are, and gives them the opportunity to thrive regardless of Spanish language proficiency. Schedules include morning, half-day, and full-day, depending on what works best for your child and family. 

Classroom Community

We believe that close collaboration and connection with peers and teachers is crucial to early-childhood development, and we place an emphasis on small classroom sizes and low student-to-teacher ratios. 

2’s classrooms: 3 teachers for 12 students

3’s classrooms: 2 teachers for 15 students

Universal Pre-K classrooms: 2 teachers for either 16 or 18 students. 

Schedule

Preschool-aged children thrive in a welcoming and predictable learning environment, where a consistent schedule helps them set expectations and feel a sense of control over their surroundings. At OWP, teachers are dedicated to creating learning environments where students find comfort in familiar routines, as well as the courage to explore new ideas and interests.

Teachers also adapt the schedule to the children’s needs and shifting circumstances. But while each day brings new learning opportunities and surprises, a possible morning/half/full day schedule at One World Project might look something like this:

Dismissal 

With some exceptions, OWP follows the NYC Department of Education’s public schools’ calendar and is closed when public schools are closed.

Children spend time outside each day in nearly all weather, so it is important that they arrive at school dressed for the elements and prepared to play outdoors. 

Music with Jenny Luna

Jenny Luna, our talented music teacher, guides students through an exploration of a wide variety of music from across Latinx culture and around the world. Jenny has vast experience in a diverse range of genres and musical styles. We are deeply grateful that she has recorded two spectacular OWP albums which feature some of our favorite songs, including a few she wrote with the children. The albums are called De Colores and Comunidad. 

Just as with visual art, our music classes emphasize the feeling of creating as a group and the process of improvisation, rather than the end result. With maracas, egg shakers, and rhythm sticks, students are invited to join in the music making in whatever ways feel meaningful for them. Children dance and move their bodies to everything from Celia Cruz to Stravinsky, getting the opportunity to play with and around new and exciting sounds each week.

Community Testimonials

Hear from our community about OWP’s impact in the classroom and the world!

• “At this point OWP is like her second home. We love the nurturing and supportive environment.”  

• We love the teachers, the Spanish immersion, the beautiful outdoor area with new play structures and plenty of opportunities for learning, and the warmth of the parents and kids in the school community. There was so much playtime and arts and crafts, but my daughter got increasingly good at writing, more physically confident, and improved her Spanish. She made friends and looked forward to going to school every day.”

• “Our family loves One World so so much! I cannot say enough about what a warm, loving, and community-focused place this is. My son, who is on the shy side, has flourished here. They are so supportive that when our second child was born, my older one’s teacher designed class discussions and play experiences around the experience of having a new baby in the family, to help him with the transition. All the teachers we’ve experienced have been amazing, and really feel like extended family in that I trust them and feel amazing about having my son in their care. He has learned so much about how to be a kind, thoughtful person - as well as their incredible art and music experiences.”
