S.t.a.r.s. Preschool is open to all children in the community. It is one of just a few preschools based on 'reverse mainstreaming', a term referring to expanding the program to include both children with special needs and typically developing children. By playing together, children learn to understand, accept and value diversity. Children were offered a year-round program that helps them reach their educational and developmental milestones.

Schreiber center for pediatric development offers a variety of recreational programs throughout the year. We offer programs in the fall, winter, spring, and summer. Our most popular programs are camp schreiber and club 625.adaptive swim lessons are offered in our therapy pool for children of all disabilities and children within the community. With our special program the kids learn in a private setting, and then either placed in a semi-private lesson or moved into a community swimming program.the schreiber programs continue to expand and grow each year. Some programs are not offered for a year and then may be brought back the next year to give the families a variety in programming.other programs offered throughout the year are music together, social skills, lunch and a movie, and respite care.
