Our Philosophy
We believe…
● Children learn through play in both their learning experiences and their environment.
● Daily routines and meaningful experiences enhance children’s learning.
● Children develop every day in five main areas of development: health and physical development, social and emotional development, language development and communication, approaches to learning, and cognition and general knowledge.
● Literacy and language development are encouraged daily in the classroom.
● Opportunities for exploration and discovery encourage children to love learning.
● A strong classroom community—learning environment enables children to develop confidence, creativity, and lifelong critical thinking skills.
● In the importance of teaching staff using developmentally appropriate practices in the classroom and taking advantage of teachable moments.
● The teaching staff should make adjustments in their teaching to meet the strengths, needs, and interests of individual children.
● Positive reinforcement and guidance is necessary for building relationships with children.
● Parent partnerships are a key ingredient to child care/school success.
