"You can teach students a lesson for a day; but if you can teach them to learn by creating curiosity, they will continue the learning process as long as they lives."
-Clay P. Bedford
Philosophy: Our kindergarten program is a developmental program. The children's intellectual, physical, and emotional needs are met in a nurturing and loving environment. The children experience hands-on learning in our classroom. Play is an integral part of our day. Children learn many skills through their play and socialization. The curricula areas include reading readiness, math, social studies, science, social skills, health, art, music, gym, technology, library and Spanish. My primary goal as a teacher is that the children enjoy coming to school and are enthusiastic learners. Kindergarten...Where All the Pieces Fit!
