Building Blocks for Life
Academy offers the Building Blocks for Life philosophy – the foundation from which all learning takes place for the future. Children grow in a nurturing environment that promotes safety and security. When children are guided to live and play together in an atmosphere of mutual respect and support, they develop positive character values. By encouraging creativity, exploration, and discovery children acquire a love of learning and a sense of self.
Children are our focus and our staff makes up the foundation of our programs. The experience, education, and low turnover of teachers and assistants ensure continuity of quality programming from year to year. Ongoing professional development keeps staff up to date on current research and issues. Child/staff ratios are kept low to facilitate a child-centered approach.
Academy is dedicated to the worlds future – its children.
