Program Goals

We seek to foster active learning through carefully curated play, routines, consistent teacher-student relationship development, choices in play, choices in social development, small and large group learning, and student directed learning in our centers. Bright Beginnings uses the High/Scope curriculum as our framework as it aligns best with our goals. Our goal is to have teachers be advocates for our students. We want our school to be advocates for your family as well. Together we work for the best student outcomes.

Every Preschool student will know their alphabet names and letter sounds when going to Kindergarten. Every Preschool student will be able to write their first names.
