HopeMark is a secular, play-based preschool in St. Louis, custom-tailored for your little one!
Established in 1971, HopeMark Preschool is a non-profit institution that provides high-quality early childhood education for children aged 3 to 5 in the St. Louis Hills area. Our aim is to help children understand how their brains and bodies work through play-based education. We strive to create an enriching learning environment that focuses on building a sense of community, social-emotional skills, self-awareness, and the academic skills they need. We do this through an individualized curriculum, exceptional teachers, and a joyful approach to fostering independence.
We take pride in offering various options to suit your child’s unique needs and preferences! Our core pre-k programs provide a solid foundation, spanning two and a half hours. But here’s the exciting part – you have the power to tailor your child’s schedule to their needs in all of our preschool programs!
Extend their day with Lunch Bunch, an optional hour and a half filled with fun activities. Whether you choose occasional or daily participation, your child will have a blast! We also offer captivating extra classes that add an hour of enriching experiences to our programs. From Karate and Yoga, Art to Soccer, and a delightful Music class, there’s something for everyone to explore and enjoy!
