Program Description

 

Our curriculum is theme based, developmentally appropriate and child oriented with a focus on preparing your child for the Kindergarten experience. Our experienced teachers prepare a creative environment where each child is treated as an individual; they are helped to develop to their greatest potential and to fostering a love of learning.

 

This program offers a variety of experiences which promote social, emotional and intellectual growth in a combination of structured teacher directed activities and free choice activities.

 

Your child will develop Pre-Reading and writing skills with a combination of the Harcourt Brace Trophies Language Arts program and the use of Kid Writing while developing math readiness skills using the Everyday Math series.
