Grand Ave Preschool believes in the importance of a positive environment and stimulating curriculum fostering children's creative and intellectual abilities appropriate for their developmental stage.
Our goal is to nurture self-esteem and independence and to set the stage for future learning through a positive first experience at school.
Social development is emphasized through play and the companionship of children of the same age. Learning should be fun and emphasize hands on experiences.
