Calling all 2024 babies! EPK is launching a new program for our youngest learners that will grant a sweet, gentle introduction to the rhythm of preschool with tons of social, emotional, and cognitive skill building opportunities.

If your 2024 baby will be turning 2 in Fall of this year, call us to learn more about this program and how it will support their schooling journey.

💚 The greatest compliment you can give us is a recommendation. 💚

Did you know that most of our new EPK families tell us they heard about us through word of mouth? 🥹✨

That means every kind word, every shared experience, and every recommendation from our amazing families has helped another child find a place to learn, grow, and thrive.

To every family who has shared your EPK experience with a friend, neighbor, coworker, or family member, thank you. We are incredibly grateful for your trust and support. 🌟

If you know a family searching for a warm, nurturing preschool or kindergarten (or one that needs dependable before and after care) we'd love to welcome them into our community.

❤️ Your recommendation truly makes a difference.

🌞💛 What an AMAZING Summer at EPK! 💛🌞

What an incredible six weeks of fun, learning, laughter, and adventure! We loved watching our campers explore exciting themes, make new friends, and discover something new every single day.

From creative arts and crafts to colorful tie-dye projects—including T-shirts, bags, socks, and beautiful sun catchers—our campers filled the summer with imagination and smiles. 🎨🌈

Every Wednesday was a favorite with our exciting Water Days, where everyone cooled off with the splash pad, pools, and plenty of water fun! 💦☀️

Thank you to all of our wonderful families for sharing your children with us this summer. It has been such a joy watching them grow, laugh, create, and make lasting memories. We are going to miss seeing all of your smiling faces!

The good news is... we'll see many of you again in just a few short weeks as we kick off another wonderful school year at Epworth Preschool & Kindergarten! 🍎📚

If you haven't registered for the 2026–2027 school year yet, there's still time! We'd love to welcome your family to our EPK community. Register today using the link below!

🌱 Could Epworth Preschool & Kindergarten be the perfect fit for your family? 💚

At EPK, we believe children learn best through hands-on exploration, meaningful relationships, and plenty of time to play, create, and discover. ✨

Our community has traditionally been a wonderful fit for families looking for a holistic approach to early childhood education, especially those with flexible schedules.

However, we also know many families need dependable, full-day care. That's why we've expanded our before and aftercare programs to give you options from 8:15AM-6PM. We want to better support working parents while providing the same nurturing, engaging environment throughout the day. 🏡💛

Whether you're looking for preschool, kindergarten, or full-time care, we'd love to show you what makes EPK so special.

We are honored to have received a generous donation to support multiple partial scholarships in our Kindergarten/Transitional Kindergarten program! A few scholarship seats remain. If your child turns 5 before November 15 of this year and you are seeking a gentle, low teacher-to-student ratio introduction to elementary education, apply soon! Call us at (301) 977-3421 to apply!

🎉 You don't have to wait for a tour to get to know Epworth’s Preschool and Kindergarten! Some of our favorite connections begin at community events. 💚

Throughout the year, we invite families to experience EPK in fun, relaxed ways, including:
🎉 Holiday-Themed events for Teacher Appreciation, Easter, Christmas and more!
👨‍👩‍👧 Parent & Me Circles
🏫 Open Houses
🎈 And other family-friendly events!

These gatherings are a wonderful opportunity to meet our staff, connect with other families, and get a feel for our welcoming community before you even think about enrollment.

Many of our families first discover EPK through a friend or neighbor, and then fall in love when they visit one of our events. We'd love for you to join us, too!
Keep an eye on our page for upcoming events. We can't wait to welcome you! 🌟
