Program

Curriculum
Our preschool curriculum is based on Jean Piaget’s and Lev Vygotsky’s  constructivist theories.  We strive to involve children in problem solving situations by utilizing science (physical and natural), mathematics, and social activities.  Our preschool and toddler curriculam also provides a variety of hands-on and social activities that incorporate children’s and families interests, needs and life experiences by exposing children to the fields of arts, music and creative movement. All of our staff plays an integral part of the curriculum by facilitating children’s explorations and positively interacting in their daily routines.

Guidance
We believe behavior guidance to be a means of fostering children’s self-control, so that they will ultimately be able to incorporate values and standards into their lives. This will allow the childrend to interact responsibly with others in a predictable and mutually satisfying way as a percursor for life long learning.

Health
We strive to maintain a clean and safe preschool environment. All our teachers are CPR and First Aide certified. Our preschool provides care for WELL CHILDREN. We depend on parents to follow the center’s policy and keep ill children at home.

Nutrition
We provide two nutritious snacks, morning and afternoon (included in the price of tuition).  We feel that mealtime is also a time for learning; therefore, children are encouraged to help themselves and each other.  Nutrition is also incorporated into the preschool and toddler curricula with cooking in the classrooms. Our weekly snack menu is posted on the parentboard.  For lunch there are two options, one is to pack your own or two we offer a hot lunch program through “CaterTots” that delivers hot lunches to families that order in advance.  Current cost of CaterTots is $2.70 per lunch and is served family-style.
