About Cadence Academy Preschool in Northlake, Charlotte, NC

Previously known as Gateway Academy, Cadence Academy Preschool is proud to be part of the Cadence Education Family of Schools. Our alignment with Cadence provides us access to effective preschool programs like the Ascend Curriculum that you won’t find anywhere else.

We take a skill-based approach to early childhood education, which gives our teachers the flexibility needed to individualize instruction to the interests and learning styles of each child in our care. Children build skill sets within 9 different learning domains as they progress through our daycare and preschool programs. Testing has confirmed that our Pre-Kindergarten students are ready for the exciting transition into kindergarten.

We also participate in the Meck Pre-K program which provides quality preschool education for qualified families. To learn more and to apply for the Meck Pre-K program, click HERE.

Kind Child

Kindness is an essential part of our school’s culture and Kind Child is a program that makes kindness a habit for both students and staff. Our teachers and directors are committed to bringing kindness into their daily interactions with each child and help children develop valuable character traits such as Thankfulness, Friendship, Empathy, and a Positive Self-Image. We have found that when we focus on the emotional well-being of our students, we create a welcoming preschool environment where children thrive.
