In order to provide the best experience for each child, we encourage parents to actively participate in their child’s program. Constant communication between parents and center staff assures a positive experience for all.
Theoretically, the center is a developmental education program. Since children of a wide variety of ages and stages attend, the first consideration is the child’s emotional well-being. We create an environment that provides a variety of learning experiences in all areas of cognitive, physical, self-help, language acquisition, social and emotional development. These experiences enable children to build self-esteem, learn acceptable methods of cooperation and become competent individuals within a group setting.
