The Two's Program
Children in our two year old program are greeted daily with hugs and smiles. Our very small class size is ideal for a "first" school experience. Our professional teaching staff provide age appropriate activities for young children to explore:

  • Art
  • Cooking
  • Singing and Dancing
  • Story Telling
  • Time to Make Friends

The Three's Program
The Three's Program is designed to promote self-confidence, self-esteem and to encourage socialization with peers. We seek to engage the children's curiosity and love of exploration by providing:

  • A wide variety of art, science and cooking activities
  • Frequent trips to the library, Mountain Lake Park and interesting places in the neighborhood
  • Annual visits to the pumpkin patch and the zoo

Toilet Training: We will work with families to provide consistency as the children master this skill.

The Four's Program
The children in our Four's Program acquire new skills and are exposed to new experiences that facilitate learning. They are motivated to learn as they try to understand the world around them. We assist this process by:

  • Providing a word rich environment
  • Introducing activities that require cooperation
  • Using story dictation as a means of fostering interest in the written word
  • Frequent visits to the library
  • Planning monthly field trips

We help the children build a framework for a love of learning that prepares them for kindergarten while enhancing their individuality.
