Our outstanding program is developed based on our philosophy and our core value, guided by State’s Educational Common Core.

 

We target Eight major domains of young child’s developmental needs.

• Approaches to Learning-Self-Regulation (ATL-REG)

• Social and Emotional Development (SED)

• Language and Literacy Development (LLD)

• English-Language Development (ELD)

• Cognition, Including Math and Science (COG)

• Physical Development-Health (PD-HLTH)

• History-Social Science (HSS)

• Visual and Performing Arts (VPA)

 

We set up our classrooms with learning centers, which offers great opportunity for our children to experience, plan, practice, investigate, solve, review various subjects and interests.

 

Our teachers lead, observe and scaffold each of our child’s progress in all developmental areas. With individual portfolio and reports, we constantly evaluate their developmental needs and provide best guidance and support. We also share our observation with parents regularly.
