Joy to the World American International Preschool & Kindergarten was founded in 2002. At Joy to the World, we strive to create a fun, safe, and friendly atmosphere in which children of all nationalities can become strong, upstanding members of the global community. We understand that true internationalization and bilingual fluency begin at an early age, and we seek to provide a rich environment in which children can grow and learn to live in harmony with all of mankind.

Upon graduation from Joy to the World American International Preschool & Kindergarten, children have the opportunity to enter Jerry's Home English or KES Kids English Studio's after school program to maintain their English skills throughout their educational careers. We also provide assistance with integration into an international elementary school. |
