The Creative Curriculum®
For over 30 years, early childhood educators have trusted The Creative Curriculum®
to help plan and implement successful, developmentally appropriate programs.
The latest research in early childhood learning is incorporated into this forward-thinking approach that honors creativity and makes learning exciting and relevant for every child. Classrooms provide stimulating surroundings and plenty of loving attention. Your child's day will be filled with art, music, movement, math, language development, science, social studies, and multi-sensory play.
Learning opportunities for students include:

4 Year Old and Pre-Kindergarten Program
The Creative Curriculum®
The Creative Curriculum® teaches language arts (including phonics using the A Beka program and writing), numbers/math, bible-based lessons, arts and crafts, and music.
Our programs emphasize the development of the whole child with a curriculum designed to
help each child grow cognitively, spiritually, socially , emotionally, physically and academically. Young children learn best as active participants in a developmentally appropriate setting where they feel comfortable, challenged, and part of a group. The incorporation of academic and phonics-based A Beka curriculum gives children a strong foundation in language skills and added confidence as they enter Kindergarten. The learning environment for your child will be one that fosters respect, kindness, confidence and responsibility.
