We offer a full day and half day Kindergarten program. Our primary focus for Kindergarten is tailoring instruction to each student at his/her stage of development. Many manipulative and hands-on experiences are included in the program to ensure that it is developmentally consistent with the way in which five-year-olds learn best.  The kindergarten program promotes student development of a healthy self-concept, physical skills, coordination, and the use of language. 

 

We are excited about implementing our Kindergarten curriculum and nurturing your child through inquiry and discovery as well as developing critical thinking skills.
