Kindergarten Philosophy Statement

We believe that children learn best in an environment where:

there is dedicated time to explore, discover, create, socialize, and learn from one another through meaningful and engaging hands-on, curriculum-based experiences;

family members are integral partners in children's learning

students' ideas and interests are the catalyst for driving experiential/authentic learning opportunities and are integrated into the kindergarten curriculum

thoughtful and meaningful choice are valued and lead to inquiry, depth and breadth of learning

purposeful learning opportunities are tailored to students' strengths and needs

experiences foster independence, perseverance, and collaboration
