Learning Through Play
Fort Hunt Preschool is a non-profit, non-sectarian parent cooperative founded in 1962. The school is located just 3 miles south of Old Town Alexandria. Classes are held in the historic Carriage House on the beautiful grounds of the Mount Vernon Unitarian Church.
Mission Statement
At Fort Hunt Preschool we believe that children learn best in a safe, nurturing environment, supported by a cooperative partnership of parents and teachers. FHP's approach to early childhood education draws on the strengths of a variety of educational philosophies to provide each child with developmentally appropriate opportunities for social, emotional, cognitive, and physical development. Through personal experience, discovery, and play (the "work" of childhood), we cultivate children's natural curiosity and foster respect for self, others, and the natural world.
