About the Provider

Description: Our program is designed to foster creativity and independence, while promoting academic enrichment through a specifically designed, curriculum utilizing challenging and stimulating materials and teaching methods.

The program cares for the child as a whole so that there is also emphasis placed on nurturing emotional growth, while sparking excitement and enthusiasm in learning endeavors.

Children work in small groups based upon their abilities rather than arbitrary chronological grouping rules. This ensures each child being able to work at his own pace and reach his own potential through opportunities for critical thinking and problem solving. Small grouping by ability allows us to respond to individual needs.

At Oakdale Academy we believe that each child is entitled to reach his or her full potential both as an academic learner as well as a well-rounded individual. We carefully attend to the academic development while nurturing the emotional growth and self-esteem of the child. Our goals include:

Successful transition from home to school
Development of self-esteem
Development of respect for others and the environment
Development of self-confidence
Appreciation and love of learning
Positive feelings towards school
Critical thinking skills
Critical evaluation
Critical observation
Logical problem

Ability to work within a group and independently
Ability to make choices, inquiries and observations
Ability to process information and a variety of modalities
