We currently offer programs for children beginning at age 3 (PreK3) through kindergarten. Our program focuses on developmentally appropriate practices and providing an environment for children to learn by doing and through play. Our math, science, and literacy lessons are integrated in the explorations and wonderings of the students.
CURRICULUM
Our curriculum is informed by the principles of place-based education, the philosophy of Reggio Emilia, and integrates principles of the project approach. We give children the support they need to be intellectually curious, socially and emotionally aware, and compassionate individuals.
Addressing the many domains of children's development means that our program prepares children by creating a solid foundation with which to base later academic learning.
