Two Year Old Program
Our two year old children start their day with free play, breakfast and playground. The children then enjoy crafts, easel painting, centers, and story time. Follo

wing lunch and rest time, they have free play or playground time. Our twos are learning to share, follow directions, and socialize with their peers. They are developing language skills to help communicate with others. The two year old program is developed around units, including all about me, fall, nutrition, nursery rhymes, circus animals, May flowers, and summer fun. Three Year Old Program
Our three year old children start their day with breakfast and together time where they talk about the calendar, weather, and their current unit. They move on to centers, where they participate in art projects or other activities. After work time, the class shares a story and they conclude the morning on the playground. Following lunch, the children participate in a teacher directed activity and then rest. Following rest and snack, the children have free play or participate in a teacher directed activity. The three year old program is developed around monthly units including friends, seasons, farms, winter, and growing. Four Year Old/Pre-Kindergarten Program
Our four year old children begin their day in a similar fashion to our two and three year old children. They enjoy breakfast, lunch, and time on the playground. Our pre-kindergarten children are also focused on units including the alphabet, blending sounds, numbers, patterns, sorting, money values, and telling time. In addition, they are studying the five senses, fire prevention, and the life cycle of the butterfly among many other fun and educational topics. Kindergarten
Our kindergarten program provides a balanced variety of experiences which foster continuing development and positive growth in emotional, social, physical and cognitive areas for each child. Concepts are introduced and developed using a multi-sensory approach. The manipulation of concrete materials provides a foundation which later can be expanded to the understanding of abstract ideas. The entire kindergarten program is structured to develop positive experiences which will facilitate the growth of each child's feelings of self worth. There is much opportunity to individualize programs based on our observations, parent-teacher conferences, staff analysis or formal evaluations of progress. Our goal is to provide an environment where each child will encounter opportunities to fully develop in all areas.

Dear Families,
After Gov. Hogan’s latest announcement, we have decided to open our summer program on Monday, June 22, 2020. In order to open, we must meet some strict guidelines that you must agree to. These rules are to protect your child, the other children, staff, and families.
1. All families must bring a thermometer, take your child’s temperature, and show it to me. I will record the temperature and ask you several questions about covid symptons that you or family members may have.
2. No child with a temperature over 100, runny nose, or other symptons will be admitted until we receive a doctor’s note.
3. Children must wear a mask when they are inside except when eating or sleeping. Please practice putting masks on and taking them off with your child. They should wash their hands before they put it on, after it is on, when they are going to take it off, and after they take it off.
4. Social distancing and limited sharing will be encouraged as much as possible.
5. Lots of hand washing and object sanitizing will take place.
6. Families and visitors will not be admitted into the building until further notice.

· All fees are due the Friday before the beginning of each session except the first session. We will receive the fees on Monday and Tuesday, June 22 and 23, 2020.
· Sessions will be as follows:
1. June 22- July 2
