With each child, we strive to reach specific goals in three areas of development: social-emotional growth, cognitive growth, and physical growth.
A non-profit school offering Infant, Wobbler, Toddler, Preschool, Pre-kindergarten, Before& After School programs, as well as, dance and gymnastics classes and a school-age summer camp. Social-emotional goals for our children include experience a sense of self-esteem, exhibiting a positive attitude toward life, demonstrating cooperative, pro-social behavior, and gaining independence. Cognitively,
we hope our children acquire learning and problem-solving skills, expand logical thinking skills, demonstrate skills in make believe play, and develop verbal, beginning writing skills, and beginning reading skills. Physically, we aim for children to enhance their gross motor skills, refine fine motor skills, and learn to use all five senses in learning. The Essence of Our Curriculum:
Our curriculum is an eclectic approach to Early Childhood Education. We’ve taken what we know to be the best parts of many educational philosophies (Creative Curriculum, Montessori, and Emergent curriculum) and created a curriculum that covers all areas of development including: social and emotional, cognitive and physical. The activities we plan for children, the way we organize the classroom, and our selection of themes and activities are all designed to give your child a successful start in school. Philosophy:
*We believe that all children are born with the desire to learn and acquire knowledge about the world they live in.
*We believe that exposure to a multitude of cultures, languages, types of music, and beliefs help foster a child’s tolerance and understanding of others.
*We believe in modeling and encouraging peaceful problem-solving skills for the child to take with him/her into adulthood.
*We believe in encouraging all children in their desire to be independent.
*We believe that it is integral to the development of the whole child to form a partnership between teacher/caregiver and parent.
