These are the values and goals we use to implement our philosophy.
• Allowing children to learn through play.
• Maintain a safe, supportive and stimulating environment.
• Respect children’s uniqueness and recognize & celebrate their individual differences.
• Development of an environment that says “YES” to exploring and experimenting.
• Discovering, having fun with friends and being a child.
• Use of positive language.
• Model empathy and compassion.
• Encourage children to take risks.
• Help children make a balance of choices.
• Keep a sense of humor and create laughter.
• Provide a “child-centered program” which evolves from the interests of the children, as well as successfully planned and implemented units.
• Cultivate a curriculum which is developed and revised to ensure a variety of developmentally appropriate experiences for children.
We fundraise about $5,000 – $6,000 annually! This money is essential to the preschool – it helps us pay our ECE Educators a fair wage, maintain current toys, supplies, and equipment, as well as attend special events or bring in special visitors.
It is therefore mandatory that all parents participate in a bake sales and/or other fundraisers as required. With a new Fundraising Committee this school year, we are hoping to expand our efforts in keeping funds low. If you are unable to participate in these events, a donation can be made in lieu. Thank you for your support!
