THE CHILDREN'S COURTYARD

Giáo viên của chúng tôi

Our goal at The Children’s Courtyard is to build a strong foundation so your child can achieve a bright future. And that’s the same thing we do for our educators. By providing them with training opportunities and career development, we know that they are becoming experts and masters, prepared to provide the most high-quality early education experience possible to our children.

Learning Management System: Staying up-to-date on child development issues and best classroom practices is essential and so our educators receive regular online training.

Child Development Associate Credential (CDA): Our CDA Preparation program (offered in partnership with the Council for Professional Recognition), is available to assist teachers seeking this nationally recognized credential, which makes them certified child experts.

Master Teacher Program: The next step for our teachers after receiving a CDA is to build their experience through our Master Teacher Program. Advanced child development and curriculum courses prepare our teachers to master the early education experience and to train new teachers to provide the best classroom environment they can.

School Education Manager Program: This is where curriculum experts are made. Our School Education Managers (SEMs) understand all aspects of the educational experience at our school so they can be effective coaches and mentors to our educators. This helps to ensure a high quality educational experience for every child.

HighScope in Action three boxesWe are inspired by the HighScope educational philosophy. The foundation of the HighScope approach is active learning and children’s initiative. Children’s critical thinking, self-confidence, and problem-solving abilities are developed through strong teacher-child interactions and a robust Plan-Do-Review process.

1. Plan

Establishing a goal Imagining actions Expressing intentions Shaping intentions into purpose 2. Do

Accomplishing a goal Solving problems Implementing intentions Playing with a purpose 3. Review

Reflecting on experiences Connecting plans, actions, and outcomes Sharing meaningful experiences Our teachers challenge and expand children’s thinking with diverse materials and nurturing interactions. In all our programs, children engage in active learning—direct, hands-on experiences with people, materials, and ideas.

At The Children’s Courtyard, we give children plenty of room to excel, in all our early education programs. Here, your child will learn alongside others, through interesting events, with the right materials, in classrooms and labs designed to develop and foster specific interests. The result? A child who thinks logically, solves problems, thrives socially, and displays exceptional strength of character. We prepare students for the next, and every, stage of a productive academic life.
