__________________________________________________________________________________

All of our classes are center-based with hands-on activities that promote social, emotional, physical, and spiritual development. We believe strongly in play-based learning. We strongly believe in helping children develop socially, emotionally and developmentally, in addition to academically.

Toilet Trained: Children in our 3 year old and 4 year old classes are expected to be toilet trained and able to use the bathroom with minimal help (i.e. wiping, pulling up pants, etc). We are happy to help with buttons and zippers. If a child has numerous accidents, we reserve the right to move their class to one which can work on toilet training.
