EDUCATIONAL PROGRAM – 3 YEAR OLD
As our three-year-old students gain more self-esteem, they may feel ready to take on the world. Our well-rounded program fosters that confidence by providing activities to help children become problem solvers and lifelong learners. Through independent exploration, structured activities, and hands-on learning, children will work on early literacy, math, science, and social studies concepts. Healthy doses of running, jumping, and dancing keeps them active, too.
