Superior Curriculum. Our literacy based curriculum enhances our student’s ability to attend to stories and to recall and re-tell them. Through the use of games and activities we expand upon the children's understanding of the characters, the sequence of events and comprehension of the text. We guide students in the use of picture cues, using illustrations to predict and hypothesize what might be coming next in the text. We build an understanding that text reads from left to right. Students begin to grasp that the written text has meaning and that each word is essentially a symbol. Therefore, we work on sight words. We use letter sounds, rhyming, alliteration and other word play to assist students in a deeper understanding of the written word. We practice the above strategies while reading mini books and Big Books. We work with books that use repetitive text and good picture cues to promote success.

Curriculum Enrichment Programs. Each week, all the children attend music class. Twice a week, five-day students three and older participate in Spanish. Every other week, students three and older participate in Movement Class, a gross motor activity class. Children enjoy activities such as parachute games, ribbon stick dances, scarf dances, obstacle courses just to name a few. Science Discovery Class is a hands on class covering topics such as sinking and floating, life cycles, static electricity and others in a small group environment. Once a month, We also offer to many:

• Chapel, in the Sanctuary.
• Literacy Enrichment Program: designed to expand on the Literacy curriculum beyond the classrooms.
• Field Trips: for children in the four-year- old program and Transition.
• Occasional Programs will be scheduled on-campus to enrich programming.< /li>
