Classes are offered from Turning Two through Young Fives. The mission of our preschool is to provide a joyful and enriching learning experience that will develop a love for learning and a sense of security that will last a lifetime. Instructors base class lessons on developmental principles and offer opportunities to form basic concepts and readiness skills through the use of many varied hands on, concrete learning experiences. Focus is on play, exploration, and creative activities which promote skills in problem solving, thinking and reasoning, language and socialization. Much emphasis is placed on a child’s physical development, small and large motor skills, as these critically affect all other areas of developmental learning
