Our Philosophy

We believe…

  • That children are precious and must receive care from adults who are capable and caring--whose values enable them to be excellent role models.
  • That children should experience numerous positive learning milestones, leading to an increased sense of competence and independence.
  • That children's play is extremely vital to healthy physical development, acceptable social skills, and cognitive growth.
  • That  teachers, drawing upon their training and experience, must create an appropriate educational environment which carefully guides children from one developmental level to another.
