Here is a partial list of special programs and services we would like you to know about.


 

Creative activities

Daily activities are designed for children to learn art, music, language arts, math, reading, writing, science, social skills, fine and gross motor skills. We create an environment that helps children to be creative in solving problems, redefining situations, demonstrating flexibility, and being adventurous.

 
 
 

  "What we Did this Week"

On Fridays parents receive written weekly review of our activities, and learning. "What We Did this Week" is posted on the bulletin board as well as put in each child's folder to take home.


  Computers

Special weekly classes and independent use of our computers, in our Computer Center, provide a full computer learning experience. Children begin learning the basics about computer use, then progress in operating the computer and programs. The special educational programs are designed for your child to play and learn math, reading and writing.

 
 
 

Spanish Classes

Once a week Spanish Language Class is held. Your child will build up Spanish vocabulary and enjoy understanding the language. By being exposed to the other language she/he will develop sensitivity to new sounds. Spanish class is a part of our extracurricular activities.

 
 

Soccer Team

Every spring and fall the soccer team is being coached. The four and five years old girls and boys learn how to play soccer. This is fabulous exercise for the kids.
