Pre-kindergarten
When the child enters the Pre-K 4 program they will have acquired and developed important skills that will act as a foundation on which this class is built. The environment is one which supports and encourages the child to confidently make decisions, as emerging agency is developed.
Our teachers act as a guide as they establish healthy boundaries to assist in this process. This program scaffolds the mathematical and literacy rich program that the child was introduced to in the three year old program. In planning, the teachers create a class environment that will encourage the children to seek answers as they become interested. They begin their induction into the academic arena.
