Our philosophy:
To offer children the opportunity to:

- Develop intellectually through specifically planned activities that will orient them to pre-academic skills in social interaction, reading, math and science.
- Develop fine and gross motor skills with daily programs that encourage small and large muscle activity and promote fitness.
- Learn new social skills through the use of the Second Step Curriculum, by utilizing skits with puppets, discussion around the picture cards, and the use of the Problem Solving Steps throughout the day.
- Explore and marvel at the world around us and the love that God shows us everyday through a Faith based curriculum focused on Developmentally Appropriate activities throughout the day.
- Explore Nature in our Outdoor Classroom with opportunities for science, math, social interaction, large motor activities, creativity and imagination as well as teacher planned activities throughout the week.
