School Notes
- Our Philosophy: At the Applewood Learning Center, we believe that each child is an individual with their own set of emotional, social, cognitive and physical needs and that learning is an on-going process in which each child learns at their own pace. Our programs are designed to facilitate the child's development in a non-competitive, supportive atmosphere. Children learn about their world through play. A child's play is the cornerstone in the foundation of thier development. Applewood Learning Center provides an environment that stimulates and encourages a child's natural desire to learn. We learn most about children through our partnerships with families. We rely on mutual respect and trust with families and appreciate the diversity they bring to our community to help our children grow to their full potential.
