Description: We are a four-star rated center committed to helping children further develop and build on the foundations of life. The Good Shepherd Day School has been providing services to our community for some fifty years.
The philosophy behind our curriculum is that young children learn best by being INTERACTIVE. "Learning" requires active thinking and experimenting which stimulates a child to find out how things work and to better understand more about the world in which we live.
We utilize the Creative Curriculum, a nationally recognized program from which we plan activities, organize the environment of the class room, select toys and materials, plan the daily schedule, and converse with the children. This curriculum is designed to give your child a successful start in school.
Where possible, ChildcareCenter provides inspection reports as a service to families. This information is deemed reliable, but is not guaranteed. We encourage families to contact the daycare provider directly with any questions or concerns, as the provider may have already addressed some or all issues. Reports can also be verified with your local daycare licensing office.
