Program and Curriculum 

The Core Curriculum, which uses the New York State Curriculum as its foundation, is presented in an interactive, innovative way.  Your child will see how theory manifests into action.  As an integral part of our curriculum children are offered many opportunities to “live” the subjects we teach.

Each child participates in the core subject area related to weekly themes.  Creativity is the focus as the children are guided through an appropriate, emergent curriculum in tune with their interests and development.  Here, children are encouraged to make choices, and to become problem solvers.  As they venture through their learning activities they are encouraged to collaborate, cooperate and develop responsibility.

Classes are intimate and small.  Special care is taken to get to know the needs of each child personally.

The following topics represent key themes that are integrated into the preschool curriculum:
