Preschool Fair – Saturday, 1/17
Overwhelmed by the thought of having to pick the best preschool for your child? The Library’s Preschool Fair is back on Saturday, January 17, 2026 from 10:00 a.m. – 12 noon. This is a great opportunity to speak informally with many local preschools all in one room, ask questions, and help narrow down your search and choose which schools you’d like to tour. This event has no registration and is open to the public.
Representatives from preschools in Three Village and the surrounding area will be at the event.
The following schools will be attending so far (as of 12/4):
– Children’s Community Head Start
– Harbor Country Day School
– Smithtown Nursery School
If you have any questions, please email kids@emmaclark.org or call 631.941.4080 ext. 123.
