Through a healthy balance of structure and exploration, our young learners build confidence and skills needed for a lifetime of success.
Academic ReadinessWe provide an environment that allows children to learn by doing. Our warm, compassionate, and loving teachers provide a mix of independent, teacher-directed, and small group learning experiences and activities that build the foundations for learning, with specific focus on advancing language ability, mathematical reasoning, and scientific thought.
Social/Emotional GrowthPlayful childhoods create happy, independent, creative and imaginative children.
A child’s brain develops more rapidly in the first 5 years of life than it ever does again. Within this time period, the brain will wire itself for social behaviors and emotional intelligence—a key factor in determining a student’s ability to learn new information in the future. The best vehicle to develop these skills is through play. It gives a natural context to try out new skills, learn various problem solving strategies, develop self-help skills and build a positive self esteem.
Faith + LeadershipEvery day our young learners experience God’s love through prayer, stories from the Bible, and positive relationships. Our Catholic faith compels us to help every child discover their unique God-given gifts and talents. Within this environment, our students feel empowered to take risks and learn from mistakes, to embrace differences, and to consider the needs of others.
