Kindergarten

 

We offer a small class size (14–16) so that we can meet the needs of each individual child.  We believe that children learn through their play and as they explore, question, listen, build, paint and sing they develop a love of learning and readiness for elementary school and other life experiences.  Carefully planned lessons guide the children through a variety of thinking processes so that they gain confidence in their abilities and talents.  Planned within the framework of our philosophy and purpose, our curriculum includes…
