Child development progresses differently for each individual child. Children are influenced by their experiences with the diverse values and practices of their family, culture, and their community. Although children develop in generally similar stages, their individual life experiences are reflected in greatly diverse patterns of behavior, learning, and attitude. Such differences are normal and must be respected in order for children to maintain a sense of pride and personal value.
DAILY SCHEDULE It is our goal to have a consistent schedule for all children so they feel as secure as possible. It will help all of us if their hours at school are as consistent as possible. Below is a sample of the 1 & 2 old schedule.
