Kindergarten Enrichment Program
Advanced 5 year olds Program
The Kindergarten Enrichment Program. We're Confident and Ready for the Future and Beyond!
Kindergarten Enrichment program is an advanced private program that will be available to our 5 year olds that are up for a challenge! As we know some children learn at a much faster pace and we want to be able to stimulate all growing minds!
This advanced program allows children to build on to previous knowledge and strengthen their skill sets. There is a strong focus on reading and writing in the Kindergarten Enrichment Program in order to build confidence and readiness for 1st grade and beyond. This program is small for the purpose of children getting one-on-one teacher student interactions. Group projects and collaborations are still being utilized for learning, however one-on-one opportunities give teachers ability to find learning opportunities and further strengthen important skills sets for success beyond kindergarten classroom. Community involvement plays a big role in this program, in order to teach responsibility and leadership. Children are becoming active participants in their classroom and beyond. The kindergarten enrichment program strengthens children's self image and confidence in welcoming challenges with enthusiasm and persistence.
Kindergarten Enrichment program will be available based on teacher recommendation.
