About the Provider

Description: Classroom lessons will be taught to accommodate a variety of
learning styles. Lessons will be authentic and engaging, and
always from a humane perspective. Teachers in every classroom
will ignite logical and creative thinking, age level appropriate.
Daily lessons will incorporate basic developmental learning, along with a reinforced appreciation for the world around us people, animals, and the environment. Here at Kinder Campus,
we believe it is never too early to address the diversity of people,
animals, and environment around us. We strive towards
developing beautiful, happy, respectful minds who are well
prepared for not only kindergarten but for their young life
in the ever changing world. Kinder Campus, as an independent business, strives for sustainability and progress. We use post consumer materials, recycle, reuse, conserve energy, and do whatever else we can to help reduce our footprints. We use green/organic/fair trade products whenever possible. Becoming green is a growing process. Once we plant the seed, if we take only what we need and not all that we want, generations to come will be privy to the plentiful resources of the planet.
