What We Provide for Preschool Teachers
We work closely with teachers at all Park Ridge schools by providing access to supplemental classroom materials, supporting the curriculum, and collaborating on programs that develop information literacy skills and a love of learning and reading.
Reading Programs
We have a reading program for every child and every season. Be a part of a reading community and earn patches, stickers, prizes, and more!
School Loan Request Form
Park Ridge teachers, please submit requests using the School Loan Request form. If you need further assistance, please contact the Children’s Department at 847-720-3250.
Preschool & Enrichment Fair
Our annual Preschool & Enrichment Fair returned to the Library on Saturday, January 25. Representatives from more than 25 organizations helped attendees choose the best setting for your child.
