Our Beliefs

We believe learning is a natural process which begins at birth.

We believe learning is more meaningful when children are provided with an integrative and hands-on approach to education.

We believe the learning environment contributes to the child's experience by providing invitations to investigate, engineer, and communicate discoveries.

We believe children are best prepared for school careers when they have had the support to feel safe, confident, and empowered.

Our Approach

By looking at Illinois Kindergarten and Common Core Standards, we prioritized the essential skills for school readiness and used them to create Culture Descriptors. These Descriptors guide our everyday interactions with children to ensure we are helping them build a solid foundation for all future learning, while equipping them with the knowledge, skills, and confidence needed to be kindergarten-ready.
