A Note From Our Principal
Happy spring! We have a fun and busy month planned for our students. In each classroom we are focusing on art and science activities that celebrate spring, and our students are looking forward to the Spring egg hunt later this month. Our students always love our annual Earth Day celebration, and this year we are releasing 15,000 ladybugs back into our environment
As we look forward to the next school year, please remember to let us know that your family intends to return. Please contact me the front desk for questions or concerns.
Sincerely,
Tiffany Williams

Monthly Curriculum
Infant
In our infant program, we start using baby sign language from the earliest months. Baby signs are common terms that have been modified and simplified from American Sign Language. The sign for this month is “eat”. To sign this phrase make an “O” shape with your hand and bring your hand up to your mouth repeatedly.
Toddlers
As your toddler’s vocabulary continues to develop, they will begin to describe the size of objects in more detail using words such as big and small.
Beginners
This month, your child will recognize her first name in print, identify aspects of nature that we associate with spring, and create art using basic shapes.
Intermediate
This month, your child will discuss characters in a story, learn to count to 40, and mimic sounds in nature.
Pre-K
This month, your child will retell stories, identify the different parts of a book (i.e. cover, title page, table of contents), describe a five-step task in sequential order.
Pre-K Two
This month, your child will retell stories, identify the different parts of a book (i.e. cover, title page, table of contents) and describe a five step task in sequential order.
