Description: At Sandy Ridge Academy, we believe that all children can learn to their highest potential through skillful teaching and collaborative programming efforts. We believe that children learn by integrated, well-planned, child-focused, developmentally appropriate instruction. Children gain knowledge through hands-on experiences in interacting with their environment, their peers, and their teachers. Our academic and developmental program is designed to nurture and advance the cognitive, social, emotional, speech/language, and physical skills of each child through individual and group learning situations. We respect that children have unique learning styles, multiple intelligences, and varied approaches to how they will best learn. Credentialed teachers and trained staff follow curriculum standards set forth by the Maryland State Department of Education in the areas of Reading/Language Arts, Mathematics, Science, Social Studies, Physical and Health Education, and the Arts including music, visual arts, and dance. We believe children should have access to technology including the use of computers and other devices to access information and reinforce classroom concepts. A unique aspect of our program is the opportunity to share in learning with children of varying abilities and backgrounds. Children are encouraged to appreciate and respect individual differences at an early age. The children develop understanding and compassion for each other through play and positive interactions and through caring adult role modeling. Carefully planned, curriculum-based, developmentally appropriate activities fill the child’s day. Monthly themes are creatively integrated into our daily curriculum with a strong reading, math, and comprehensive academic base.
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.
