Early Childhood

Philosophy    

Our Nursery and Pre-K program offers a developmentally appropriate curriculum.  Through active participation, using all five senses, our 3-& 4 year-olds develop an understanding of their world.

Preschoolers learn through play.  Play is the preschooler’s “academics”.  Our program provides quality play through open-ended materials which encourage creativity, unhurried time to explore the environment and nurturing adults who listen to and ask questions of children.

Language and social/emotional development is emphasized in the early childhood classroom.  Language is encouraged through conversation, listening, dramatic play, creative self-expression, music and the art process.

Social/emotional development is promoted through peer interaction, role-modeling by experienced teachers and opportunities to make independent choices.

Our experiential curriculum stimulates enthusiasm for learning that will last a lifetime.
