Curriculum

As a basis for our unique curriculum, our approach to learning is based on one fact. It should be fun.  Your child will enjoy playing and learning among friends through inviting hands-on activities. Our curriculum fosters confidence building and sharing of their own ideas.  To question and to be curious.  To wonder and be surprised.  We encourage creativity, special interests, individual learning styles and pace of every child.  There are intentionally no classroom televisions in our school.

Your child’s teachers follow a carefully outlined schedule of age appropriate activities which includes an abundance of indoor and outdoor play, as well as additional outdoor activities including organic gardening, picnics nature study and stories.  Our curriculum meets and exceeds State requirements.

We evaluate each child during the first week with us and every eight weeks throughout enrollment, providing you with a copy of these evaluations so that we may work together.

We encourage good manners, kindness, respect, creativity, sharing and being a good friend.  Although the majority of the day is play,  through our unique developmentally appropriate curriculum and our dedicated staff, each year children are reading, writing, adding and subtracting prior to leaving us for kindergarten.

“This school is beautiful. And spotless. Our children are never ready to go home. (We used to take that personally!) The activities are fun and educational and they get to play outside 4 to 5 times a day. It’s also nice that their teachers have been there for many years. It’s obvious they love it there. My husband and I feel extremely fortunate to have our children enrolled.”–Enrolled Family
