Nurturing Young Minds to Thrive

Our Curriculum

Our diverse range of programs and meticulously designed curriculum cater to the unique needs of every child, fostering academic excellence, personal growth, and a love for learning. Discover how we nurture young minds to thrive in a supportive and engaging environment.

We use the Experience Curriculum for Toddlers and Preschool because it is child friendly and helps children become enthusiastic independent learners. We have had a lot of success using it and all children get the same opportunity for creative hands-on experiences.


Parent involvement is strongly encouraged in our program because it is a key component to the success of each child. All families are encouraged to share their cultural preferences and special concerns. We honor dual language homes, and the staff makes every effort to speak to the child in their language. Parents are invited to participate in our field trips and special events during the year.

Preschool Program

Our program builds a love for learning with our clear goals, Christian-based values, and small group evidence-based reading curriculum, ensuring kindergarten readiness and cultivating thriving, happy children.

Literacy Program

The Experience Curriculum and explicit science-based reading instruction allow children the opportunity to learn to read. The literacy program has seven components: Phonics and decoding, phonological awareness, vocabulary and language, knowledge or print, letters and words, comprehension, books, and other texts.

Our Comprehensive Curriculum

We combine two curriculums. We use the Experience Curriculum and the Second Step Early Learning Program for Preschool because they are nationally recognized as using the research-based teaching practices. The Experience Curriculum is aligned with the core academic national and state standards, and it helps children become enthusiastic independent learners.

The literacy program has seven components: Literacy is a source of enjoyment, vocabulary and language, phonological awareness, knowledge of print, letters, and words, comprehension books, and other texts.

The Second Step Early Learning program is used because it is designed to increase school readiness by building early learners social emotional competence and self-regulation skills. According to research, “children who learn social-emotional skills early in life are more self-confident, empathetic, competent in using language to communicate and relate well to others.” (Cohen, Onunaku, Clothier, & Poppe, 2005).

Weekly Engagement

Money Mondays

Money concepts are interwoven into our math and literacy on “Money Mondays”. As a result, an “economic culture” is established in their homes by the child sharing what they learned and listening to their parent’s childhood stories.

Nutrition Thursdays

In collaboration with Einstein, the children are willing to try different healthy foods. This is a huge accomplishment for children. Parents get a copy of the lesson and a recipe to take home.
