PHILOSOPHY: Helping each child develop to his or her fullest potential is our first priority. We believe every child needs and deserves a safe, secure and stimulating environment. Our curriculum is based on the whole child, his/her social, emotional, physical, cognitive, and creative development. We see each child as a unique individual and tailor our program according to the child's strengths and interests. We believe in fostering cultural awareness and pride through an anti-biased curriculum and activities. We believe this desired environment is accomplished through a positive approach to learning with skilled teachers. We believe that quality child care includes communicating and working with the whole family through education, support and parent involvement. We strive to keep our services available and affordable to all families. Our preschool graduates enter kindergarten prepared for the rigorous academic standards of the International Baccalaureate (IB) education offered in the Skyline School District & at Lincoln High School. We are committed to providing staff development opportunities throughout the year. Our staff development days help teachers keep current on the most recent trends in education. We follow best and proven educational practices and are constantly striving to improve. You will not find a center with a more passionately committed staff.
We believe every person is a gift to this earth and each deserves quality care. Many parents work very hard every day yet barely make enough to survive. Others may be in pursuit of job training or education that will lead to financial stability and well-being. We have never turned a child away due to family inability to pay. When needed a sliding scale fee based on income is offered. Preschool room air is constantly filtered through an electronic air filtration system
The entire building is monitored by a state of the art security system with audio in the preschool room
We use "full spectrum" lighting. This type of lighting has shown to enhance children's learning and gives many of the benefits of natural sunshine
