Curriculum

We utilize The Creative Curriculum for Preschool, which is a whole-child, comprehensive curriculum that emphasizes rich, engaging, play-based learning experiences; hands-on investigation of interesting materials; nurturing environments; and warm, welcoming, responsive relationships between teachers, children, and their families.

About The Creative Curriculum

The Creative Curriculum for Preschool is founded in 38 objectives for development and learning. The objectives cover four major domains of child development (social-emotional, physical, language, and cognitive), five content areas (literacy, mathematics, science and technology, social studies, and the arts), and two objectives related to English-language acquisition. 

The Creative Curriculum for Preschool meets the early learning standards of each state, as well as the Head Start Early Learning Outcomes Framework.
