How to register your 4K student for the 2024-2025 school year:
Our Curriculum is modeled off of WMELS and is play based.
Health and Physical Development
Children's future health and well being are directly related to the development and strengthening of their large and small muscles, involvement in sensory experiences, and the practicing of healthy behavior.
Social and Emotional Development
Social and emotional is an ongoing process of skills acquisition and mastery, involving emotions, perception, cognition, and language. There is a direct relationship between a child's social and emotional well being and overall success in school and life.
Language Development and Communication
During the first years of life, language has an essential impact on the rapid development of a child's brain. Children increase their language and communication skills by expressing their ideas and feelings, and by listening and understanding others while engaging in meaningful experiences with adults and peers.
Approaches to Learning
The acquisition of knowledge, skills, and capacities is an insufficient criterion of developmental success. Children must be inclined to master such skills and capacities.
Cognition and General Knowledge
Children acquire knowledge by linking prior experiences to new learning situations. As a child applies and extends prior knowledge to new experiences, he or she refines concepts or forms new ones.
