Our Classes
Curriculum & Schedule
Our daily classroom schedule offers a balance between teacher-directed and child-choice activities. The developmentally appropriate curriculum includes daily creative art activities, children’s literature, music, dramatic play, science, cooking, sensory play, gardening, and large motor activities. We promote “hands-on” learning through self-initiated activity. Our teachers are facilitators while the children create and explore engaging learning activities.
Religious education is a thread that is woven into the curriculum. The children hear Bible stories daily, pray before snacks and lunch, and attend Chapel service each Friday morning.
