There's an overview of appletree's curriculum at https://www.appletreeinstitute.org/our-curriculum and more at https://www.everychildready.org/families

I think a lot of 3-5 year olds could do fine with it. It's not sitting at a desk all day or anything.

We are a Maury bound family very happy at Miner for pre-k years. Nice new building and playground, great teachers and small class size (14 kids).

I had heard Appletree was more “academic” but I also know families who are very happy there so I’d visit both and see which you prefer.


OP here. Appletree is the better commute for us, but I've heard similar things about it being more of academic. Just wondering if that's really true and how academic things can be with 3 yos.

We were happy at AppleTree Lincoln Park as a Maury family.

If you're going to Maury for K, then it really doesn't matter. Both are fine.

Help me decide which to rank above the other. We are inbound for Maury, so I'm only concerned w/prek. Are there any real differences curriculum wise?
