Early Childhood
The Early Childhood program offers a unique opportunity for our youngest learners. Our program creates a robust, year-round experience designed to prepare students cognitively, socially, and physically for transition into kindergarten. Our preschool reflects the belief that because each child grows at his or her own rate and pattern, each class must incorporate activities for individual levels of readiness. Our warm and caring atmosphere of playful exploration and discovery ignites inquiry and incorporates multi-sensory experiences.
Our teachers recognize that the love of learning encompasses many learning styles, thus leading to a program that offers a rich resource of activities where risks are encouraged and every child is respected. This philosophy extends through kindergarten with the emerging literacy and math programs that are guided by a qualified teacher and assistant, and our Early Childhood division incorporates weekly enrichment “specials,” which are classes taught by specialist teachers in art, music, physical education, library media, and technology.
