What we Provide Our Active Learners

Academic Introductions — These are group learning sessions where students will be introduced to the subject matter they are learning that day
Independent Exercises — As your child is growing older, they will begin to explore the world around them independently. We provide plenty of opportunities for the children in our program to explore subjects, concepts, and ideas on their own to further develop their independent thinking skills
Large and Small Group Activities — Along with independent learning, we encourage the children in our programs to work together. We have created small and large group stations where children will learn to cooperate with each other to solve problems and investigate new ideas and materials. Our small group stations focus on close engagement with peers while our large group activities focus on a community approach to learning
Realistic Application — In each educational experience, children will learn to apply thought, imagination and creativity to real life situations and problems
