The Kumon Program takes students from counting to calculus and pre-reading to Shakespeare.

Today, we’re focusing on the concepts your child will study to complement their learning in preschool. Click through to learn more about Kumon’s Early Learner curriculum. Remember, in Kumon, students aren’t limited by their age or grade level.

Every student studies at a level that is just right for them. https://bit.ly/2HWKCER
