Core Values

The small child generally has had little experience in living with other children and with other adults. He/she needs to learn to work in a group, to feel secure in relationships with one or more individuals, and to stand on his/her own feet and work out the solutions or problems. Through the guidance of the teacher and the safe atmosphere of the kindergarten, the child will be able to make the transition between the home and school. We hope that your child learns in kindergarten that the teacher is his/her friend and kindergarten is a happy, fun place for learning.

Cooperation between home and school is very important in laying a good foundation for your child's happy and successful school life. Only when a harmony of understanding and action are achieved between home and school can there be a program of maximum growth for your child. On the following pages, you will find some ways in which you can help us give him/her a good start in school.

Kindergarten used to be a place mostly for play and learning to get along with others. The 21st century kindergarten is a place where learning to read, write and do math is also emphasized.
