Shepherd’s Watch Academy holds a strong belief that children are a gift from God. We are passionate about providing them with love, protection, and education. Character and Spiritual Development are integral threads that run throughout our curriculum and daily activities. Enrollment at SWA is open to children of all faiths, and being an active Christian is not a requirement to enroll.
Through the use of creative curriculum and integration of core Christian values, we provide our students a solid foundation on which they will build future successes. We encourage our students to interact, play, and have fun while they learn. SWA provides an environment filled with love, security, acceptance, guidance, and sensitivity to the child’s intellectual, emotional, physical, and social needs. We implement a regular combination of free choice activities, goal-oriented group endeavors, and time for rest and reflection.
Unlike traditional daycare, SWA’s emphasis on holistic growth affords its students significant advantages in all areas of their future education. SWA offers a complete program which challenges and nurtures children equally with respect to gender, race and religion. We understand the importance of our students’ security in this day and age, and are continually improving our safety and security protocols.
We encourage Parents to be involved in their child’s experience at SWA, and we offer many additional support services for accomplishing this. A strong, supportive family life normally leads to fewer behavior, emotional, and physical issues in developing children. We invite you to come visit our facility for a guided tour, and opportunity to observe our staff and students in their daily routines.
