We utilize a number of proven curriculums and educational philosophies including Howard Gardner’s theory of Multiple Intelligence, Maria Montessori's beliefs of child independence, Erik Erikson's stages of child development, and Carl Rogers' humanistic theory that all people are inherently good.
OUR NUTRITIONAL PROGRAM
We understand the importance of a healthy and balanced diet to help promote kids' concentration, memory, focus and growth, which is why we have a nutritional program. For a nominal fee we offer home-cooked, healthy and nutritious meals for breakfast and lunch. Included with your monthly tuition is an afternoon snack.
