Junior Kindergarten activities include large and small hands-on groups, independent activities, and realistic application. The learning stations and curriculum were designed to build children’s comprehension. Through independent and cooperative learning strategies, children are able to apply thought, imagination, and creativity into their educational experiences.

Our junior kindergarten program is filled with engaging activities to prepare your child for school.  The curriculum emphasizes the development of language, math and science skills, as well as the social skills necessary for a successful kindergarten experience.  Our program provides your child with opportunities to practice such skills as listening, following directions, following tasks through to completion, and positive social interaction with peers.  Your child will leave our program ready to take on the challenges of elementary school.
