Our
Philosophy:
We believe that the educational developments in the earliest years
are the most important and the most in need of attention. We
have a greater responsibility than ever to reassess the role of
early childhood education in the life of young children.
Pre-school is the first link in a long chain of instruction.
Success in a child's progress through school depends largely on the
foundation laid in the early years. Our Pre-school program is
designed to help meet this goal.

Our
Program Description:
Our program is designed to stimulate students of varying backgrounds
and levels of achievement. We have concise but comprehensive
descriptions of the developmental skills expected of our Pre-schoolers.
Our program also contributes to all aspects of a child's
developmental needs: spiritual, physical, cognitive, language,
social and emotional. All the young child's developing
potentials should be challenged, exercised and supported.
Young
children learn best through interaction with their
environment. Through repeated activities with concrete
objects, 3 year olds assimilate new elements into their already
formed ideas about reality and accommodate or change these ideas
when newly assimilated knowledge causes them to do so. They
eagerly engage symbolic thought by representing ideas and events
with words, drawings and dramatic play. To the Pre-school
child learning is an exciting endeavor!
