About the Provider

Description: We teach self-confidence by giving children all the skills needed for success in their next school. The heart of our program is a theme based curriculum which makes learning fun by weaving all our monthly activities around a single subject. Themes are illustrated through stories, games, music, drama, dance, craft projects, videos, computer software, and field trips. The result is children who have a positive self-image, have great social interaction skills, and want to go to school.
