About
Our professional, loving teachers provide a warm Christian environment where children learn through hands-on play and discovery. Our community is one where parents and teachers partner to nurture each child’s social, emotional and spiritual growth. We surround them with an atmosphere of respect and appreciation for themselves and others.
Our curriculum is created with hands-on play at the forefront, while rooted in the fundamentals of social interaction, behavioral responsibility, and emotional expression. Our teachers help foster this type of approach by creating real-life situations where students can learn by doing. From cooking to dining, from building block structures to artistic expression, the children use their imagination and tactile skills to engage their minds in creative experience. This also allows the teachers to connect with the students as they work together on proper social, behavioral, and emotional interactions with others. The students learn about the nuances of sharing, patience, team work, pride, and setbacks. More importantly, they learn not to give up when something does not work the first time.
Our hands-on play approach is the equivalent of a child learning in a science lab, where students have the tools (toys, markers, paints) to create something new and personable.
