We offer a Whole Language/Hi-Scope curriculum that encourages
hands–on active learning. Families will partner with
dedicated well prepared early childhood staff to make early
learning years a fun experience. We welcome volunteers on
field trips, to share hobbies, or to read to the children
during our Thursday afternoon story hour. Our High Scope/
