Mi Casita, Philadelphia's first Spanish immersion preschool aims to develop children into multicultural students who are curious, passionate, and confident. With a staff of mostly native Spanish speakers with strong backgrounds in early childhood education, the school will teach through an all Spanish curriculum that encourages learning through play, literacy, and math development. Founded by Melissa Page, a former high school language teacher with a lifelong passion for Spanish language education, the school will be situated at 1415 Fairmount Ave. The spacious 4600-square-foot location in a brand new building will include a kitchen, library, and a variety of rooms for learning and playing. The location offers close walking proximity to Clemente Park and Playground, Spring Garden Community Gardens, and Francisville Playground as well as very easy access to public transportation. Mi Casita Preschool offers a comforting, caring environment and multicultural learning community for children ages 18 months through five years.
