We believe our school is a special place, unique in a child’s experience, and designed
to provide the components of a quality early childhood educational program.
Recognizing how crucial and important the early years of childhood are, we believe
in inspiring children to reach their highest potential academically, socially, physically
and artistically.
The components of our program are:
• a stimulating environment, rich with opportunities for learning in Language
Arts, Math, Science, Social Studies, and the Arts, which enhances the child’s
natural curiosity and desire to learn in an atmosphere of loving care.
• low adult-child ratios, which are associated with more extensive teacher-child
interaction and the ability to individualize learning. Small group size provides more
opportunities for teachers to encourage exploration, problem-solving and promote
language development.
• the development of cognitive, social-emotional, and motor skills, which are
related to early learning and later academic achievement.
• teachers who are degreed, teach using the principles of developmentally
appropriate practice, and are committed to continued growth as professionals to
improve the learning of all students.
• Mutually beneficial relationships with families to develop the deep knowledge
of individual children, so we can teach each child in the context in which he/she
develops and learns.
Our mission is to provide a stimulating, developmentally appropriate environment
that enhances the child’s natural curiosity and desire to learn in an atmosphere of
loving care with individual attention to children’s needs and learning styles,
respecting parents as partners in the learning community.
