Preschool Programs
Teachers in our Preschool classrooms make sure children and families feel comfortable and knowledgeable about classroom routines, expectations, and range of activities. Children can explore ideas and materials as they engage in a variety of activities. They are encouraged to use tools safely and productively, and to communicate their thoughts and needs to teachers and other children. Teachers support children in establishing positive and enjoyable relationships with one another. They assist children in their attempts to initiate play, cooperate with others, and negotiate conflicts successfully. Classroom experiences promote and integrate pre-literacy and math skills, science and social studies thinking, art appreciation and creativity, and physical development. Emphasis is placed on communication of ideas in a group, problem-solving, and individualized and collaborative learning.
