Philosophy
We believe in the value of human diversity and the fair treatment of all people. It is our number one goal to provide the kind of environment and the kind of influences that encourage all children (including children under IFSP/IEP Plans) to become creative, independent, responsible, well-rounded, self-directed adults who can make decisions for themselves. We desire excellence in meeting the needs of children and their families for nurturing, growth, and development, relationships, and understanding. Our values and beliefs about children are deeply rooted in the history of Early Childhood Education.
