About Our Program:
Exploration and discovery are used to learn, enabling children to develop confidence, creativity, and critical thinking skills. Our program concentrates on developing the "whole child" by building communication, social/emotional, cognitive, and physical skills. Children are encouraged to engage in "hands-on" experiences that lead to learning through discovery, recognition of logical consequences, organization of thoughts, facts, and problem-solving. We utilize the Creative Curriculum framework which supports our belief that children learn best when the classroom is child-centered with a focus on interest areas.
