Language development, music, fine and large motor skills, literacy, and basic concepts are advanced through engaging, teacher-guided activities, exploration, special events, and play. Learning centers that promote pre-reading skills, dramatic play, computer knowledge, science, art, and math are offered daily.  Making friends and overall social competency is also emphasized.
  • Our Jr. Kindergarten program for four and five year olds highlights literacy, language development, math, creative thinking, motor skills, and social development.  Literature, handwriting, phonics, and print awareness activities nurture emerging readers while fascinating science and social studies topics are investigated with hands-on experiences and intriguing books.
