Discovering Our World

Age Range: 3 Years – 5 Years

Our Preschool and Pre-K environment is a laboratory for life. We believe that at this age, "learning" shouldn't feel like "schooling"—it should feel like an adventure.

Our curriculum is child-led and interest-driven, meaning we follow the natural curiosity of our students to build a deep, foundational love for discovery. Rather than focusing on rote memorization, we focus on the social-emotional tools that allow children to navigate the world with confidence and kindness.

• Social-Emotional Foundations: We prioritize "Heart Skills" first. Children learn to identify big emotions, practice empathy for their peers, and develop the language to resolve conflicts independently through guided social coaching.

• Child-Led Inquiry: Is the class fascinated by shadows? Then we study light. Are they curious about bugs? We head outside to explore. By letting the children’s interests drive the "lesson," they remain deeply engaged and active participants in their own education.

• Hands-On STEM Exploration: Math and science aren't found in a workbook; they are found in the block center, the mud kitchen, and the sensory table. We explore patterns, gravity, and cause-and-effect through building, creating, and messy experimentation.

• The Power of Play: We provide "Invitations to Play"—carefully curated stations that encourage collaborative storytelling, dramatic play, and complex problem-solving with friends.

The Goal: To nurture emotionally intelligent, resilient, and deeply curious children who know how to ask "Why?" and "How?"
