    About Discovery Schoolhouse in Milton, MA

    Discovery Schoolhouse Inc. (DSI) was founded in 1992 by a dedicated group of parents and teachers in response to the closure of another school. As a 501(c)3 childcare and community service program, DSI provides affordable, quality, full-day childcare for children in Milton and Boston. The school is run by a small professional staff, with oversight by a volunteer Board of Directors made up of current and past students' parents. From 1992 until 2009, DSI was located at 865 Brush Hill Rd. in Milton, Massachusetts. This wooded lot is only 1.5 miles away from Mattapan Square, and is adjacent to Fairmont Housing, a low-income housing development in Hyde Park run by the Boston Housing Authority. This unique setting provides a truly child-centered experience with a diversity of families.

    Preschool & Toddlers

    We always have toddler and preschool children enrolled for a variety of the available schedules, with some children attending “full time,” five days a week, 7:00 to 6:00, and other children attending only 2 or 3 days 8:00 – 3:00 (and everything in between). Many parents send their children to Discovery Schoolhouse so that their children will have a positive social experience with other children, learn how to be friends, and learn about the world.

    Real, old fashioned preschool

    The program uses an interactive, child-centered, developmentally appropriate approach which assumes that children learn through active participation and discovery (which is just our way of saying that we are a very “play-based” program). The curriculum emphasizes child-initiated activities, fostering independence, social skills, respecting cultural diversity, creativity, and individuality.
