Our Curriculum

We provide children with a positive start to schooling.

  • 2s: We thoughtfully support social-emotional growth and potty-training while encouraging curiosity and exploration through purposeful play.
  • 3s: Students are introduced to early learning concepts, such as counting, numbers, colors, shapes, and the ABCs. Social-emotional and academic goals are woven together using engaging weekly themes supported by our research-based Experience Curriculum.
  • PreK: Through multiple research-based preschool curricula, including Learning Without Tears and Heggerty, our goal is for each child to feel confident, capable, and exceptionally well prepared for kindergarten – both academically and socially.
