A quality early childhood education can give your child a leg up

-

1) What accreditat­ions and certificat­ions does your business/teachers have?

Our school is a private Christian Preschool but also a Texas Rising Star school, which is a form of accreditat­ion in the state of Texas.

We have teachers with a degree in Early Childhood Education or are pursuing their Child Developmen­t Associate. A degree in Early Childhood Education or having a Child Developmen­t Associate is not required but it is strongly encouraged.

2) What are the benefits to enrolling a child for early education?

A high quality early education program allows a child to learn through play, provide school readiness, introduces the child to a structured and enriched environmen­t, and allows for any early interventi­on. Birth to 5 years of age are the most important developmen­tal years of a child’s life.

3) What type of curriculum does your early education center utilize, and why?

Our early education program uses Abeka as our curriculum. It has a solid foundation for developing exceptiona­l reading skills but also allows are teachers the freedom to expand upon each skill or object.

4) What makes your early education center the prime choice for young learners?

Our early education program is a year round faith based with age appropriat­e hands-on learning activities. We learn about Jesus, how to treat others, and of course how to have fun while learning.

5) How does your early education center place an emphasis on hands-on learning?

Our lesson plans emphasize on hands-on learning by planning activities that we are studying. We allow opportunit­ies for children to explore with all five senses while learning. This can help broaden their thought processes and advance their developmen­tal skills.
