The Preschool program takes advantage of the rapidly developing independence and social maturity the
Under Age 6 group exhibits. Integrating the arts throughout the curriculum, learning cooperation and developing a
realization of one’s role in a group effort, are some of the many classroom goals.
UNDER AGE 6 CURRICULUM
Curriculum areas stress social abilities/self-expression which includes many aspects of building a positive self-image, as well as perspective in taking in work and social situations.
