SUPPORTIVE ENVIRONMENT

Children learn best through active, participatory play and interactions that use all of their senses. We give our children the opportunity to set their own goals and to select their own materials, activities and play partners. Our students thrive through positive, authentic relationships in a supportive environment that challenges each child to think creatively and advance to the next educational level.
