Academics
Our Pre-K4 and Kindergarten curricula are designed to spark creativity, curiosity as well as to establish strong academic foundations through hands-on, interactive methodologies. Students are introduced to phonics work, letter formations and writing through small group learning and one-on-one interactions with their teachers.  In addition to daily practice in their phonics/reading, writing, and math/science skills, students attend art, drama/music, P.E., and Spanish classes several times a week. Students are also introduced to
Second Step
, our Social Emotional Learning (SEL) program.  Our SEL program helps students work together in the classroom, to express their emotions using their words, and to grow into independent individuals in a safe and warm environment.
