Description:
Your child’s lifetime love of learning begins here.
Our LifeSmart™ curriculum is introduced to children under the Multiple Intelligences theory. Intelligences are the ways each of us perceives and understands the world as we encounter problems and seek solutions. This theory provides an approach to nurturing and teaching children that focuses on individual needs and strengths. By providing a variety of experiences to foster each and every intelligence, children become more adept in all intelligences.
Our teaching strategies are designed to maximize the full development of each individual child and recognizes how they learn different subjects in different ways, utilizing their intelligences, or “smarts.” Our rich learning centers are therefore designed around eight “Smarts”:
WordSmart: Reading, writing and telling stories
NumberSmart: Logical thinking, patterns, and numbers
BodySmart: Expression through one’s body, movement and physical activity
DesignSmart®: Visualization, building, drawing, and design
RhythmSmart: Rhythm, signing, and creating music
NatureSmart®: In tune with physical world and living things
PeopleSmart®: Working in groups, sensitivity to others, leadership
SelfSmart: In touch with personal feelings and thoughts
We also know education is not a one-size-fits-all experience. That’s why we created the School Readiness Pathway, to provide educational options, empowering parents to choose the best fit for their child’s abilities, strengths, and needs. You’ll find individualized lesson plans in each classroom, in every school, based on the specific abilities and readiness to learn of those students. The result: Customized early education that’s perfect for your child.

do not recommend sending your children here at all. although the teachers and other staff are very kind and hardworking, the managers are so bad. the kids are definitely under fed and are always complaining that they are hungry, and although teachers try their best, the place is a mess. it may not look like a mess but when was the last time everything was wiped down. i know teachers clean their classrooms daily which i respect, but i dont think the outdoors play area is ever being cleaned by anybody!!!! the teachers try their best with the limited resources they are given. they have to somehow divide such a small portion of food to all of their students and not only that the ratio size is ridiculous. i honestly wish i could give this place zero stars. the teachers try their best but the managers are just raking in the money for themselves its not okay. how can you charge for so much when our kids are being underfed, in an environment that is not the most clean, they are often left to play amongst themselves. i dont feel good sending my kids here ever. they need to hire more staff who are more consistent because i would always see new staff for classrooms so maybe they need to give their employees higher salaries. the management of this place is absolutely horrific. stop keeping the money, pay your employees well, and spend some extra money so that each child gets more food please. i know that some kids end up only eating two chicken nuggets as their meal, how is that even considered a meal. the teachers really do try to do their best with what they are given, but the managers need to change their ways. im so disappointed with this place and would never send any kids here ever. they make everything online look nice and friendly, but they are just covering up.
