Mary Meyer School is a preschool based in the Lakeview neighborhood of Chicago. We are a NAEYC accredited school that inspires children to encounter the world with joy, curiosity and confidence. Clad in backpacks and excited anticipation, the children at Mary Meyer climb the stairs to the little schoolhouse and enter a magical land of wonder and discovery, budding self sufficiency, first friendships, shrewd negotiations, limitless imagination, delighted giggles, big classroom jobs, small winter slippers, intriguing books, artistic masterpieces, beautiful messes, warm hugs and the beginning of a lifetime of finding joy in learning.
Mary Meyer School is currently accepting applications for the upcoming 2022-2023 school year.
