Curriculum Used

• Math Their Way: We use just the beginning concepts and are developing "Workjobs" that will reenforce counting concepts. Here is a link to some more information on counting with children. Counting with Math Their Way.
• Workjobs: This refers to "jobs" the children get to do with teachers in a more directed time of play. There is a specific "job" such as matching, counting with one to one correspondance, or sorting. These are being created by our staff from Math Their Way.
• Handwriting Without Tears: This is a developmental program that we use with all our classes. It incorporates music, rhymes, and much more, to expose children to concepts that are necessary before they move on to actually writing with a pencil. In our Pre-K class, the children do use pencils and other writing tools to write capital letters in the Handwriting Without Tears way.

Dear Parents,

Requests for financial help via the Financial Assistance Application will be considered for no more than half of the tuition, and only for the 9 to noon option. For pre-K, scholarships are only available for 3rd year students or children age 5 by September 1st. More information and instructions are on the application, so to apply, download the form and return it by the end of August. Please send me an email or give me a call to let me know that you have mailed it, so I can know to look for it.

Sincerely,

Kahleen Edeal, Director

What families qualify for help?

Well, where do I start? Since we depend on the money from the tuition payments and what ever is available in the scholorship fund to run our program, the families that are not paying for any other programs for their child or paying for any other “fun” things due to stressed finances are what this is for.

How much is available?

We currently depend upon people donating to our scholarship fund. Please feel free to share this opportunity to give to our program with your friends and family.
