Takoma Children’s School (TCS) is a progressive year-round preschool serving 2 to 5 year-old children and their families with part-time through full-day options.
Our school’s outstanding teachers and staff provide a nurturing, safe, and fun-filled environment that fosters creativity and a love of learning through play and exploration. We value each child’s unique needs and contributions, as we foster social, emotional, physical, and thinking skills that children will need and use throughout their lives. Our TCS family is committed to celebrating and reflecting the diversity of our community.
There are currently limited spaces available for this school year for children that were 3 or 4 years-old by September 1, 2024. If you would like a tour (adults only, please), we would be glad to introduce you to our community. Or you can contact us with a general inquiry.
Applications for openings in the 2024-2025 Stars (3s) and Rainbows (4s) classes will be considered on a rolling basis.
Applications for the 2025-2026 school year are due on Friday, January 31st. TCS will notify families of enrollment offers or waitlist status in mid-February.
