Los Gatos Academy Preschool

Our mission is to develop an individual program for your child, along with your support, to help the child(ren) grow into confident and motivated learners, and further solidify the development of them as a whole person. Our mission is to nurture your child in achieving their own individual potential as a well-rounded, secure, confident little person with a strong motivation to learn and a strong sense of self as they enter into school. All individuals vary in how they process information and acquire skills. Learning strategies that are helpful for one child may be useless or possibly counterproductive for another. Even very young toddlers demonstrate strong learning preferences. Our teachers develop individualized teaching strategies devised to match your child's own learning style. This, in turn, promotes growth in all areas of development.

Our curriculum consists of large group activities, small group learning stations and individual learning experiences. Each activity is modified to your child's unique learning style and level in order to create a stimulating, challenging, fun and rewarding learning experience. Your child will have opportunities to choose from a given number of daily activities consisting of:
Reading,
Math,
Science,
Creative Arts,
Language Development,
Fine and Gross Motor Development,
Physical Development,
Sensory Motor Development,
Social Development.

In addition to the regular daily curriculum, your child will be exposed to various extra curricular activities focusing on Cultural Diversity, Music & Dance, Caring for Classroom Pets, Recycling, Fire and Police Safety, Gardening, Cooking, Health & Fitness and much, much more. Daily activities are planned to encourage self-responsibility, exploration, cooperation, creativity and physical movement. The students of LGAP are taught to be respectful of themselves, others and the environment. Learning should be an enjoyable and rewarding experience and, therefore, should not place pressures upon your child.
