| Our valet parking or door-to-door service is a great feature and when you register your child you will receive a personal ID that is to be displayed on the sun visor of your car when picking up your child. We are so proud to give you this safe, and personal service.
In rain & snow or inclement weather you can drive under the portico at the entrance, display your own personal ID and a staff member will escort your child into the car. Your child does not get wet. Your infant does not have to get out of the car. You buckle up and drive away. A great idea to pick up your child! When dropping off your child the same applies. Pull up under the portico, a staff member greets you and your child and escorts your child into the school. Special Feature: Each one of our 5 classrooms have a one way mirror for our parents to view the child without them knowing it. It's a plus because you the parent or visitor can see the class in action. Each classroom is equipped with their own child size designed bathroom. Children are taught personal hygiene and hand washing is stressed. Bathroom procedures are monitored by our staff members. Another special feature - The front door is always locked. There is a double lock on the inside also. The only way to get into the building is through the front door. Parents or visitors must ring the bell and only the secretary or a staff member is allowed to open the front door to let you in. Our parents are delighted to know their children are safe & secure in a happy family environment.
The playground has a 6 foot fence all around the perimeter of the playground where children are safe. We call our playground "an accident free playground". Rubber chips (not sand, grass, dirt, or wood chips) are spread 6 inches deep where if the children fall they do not get hurt. It's soft and rubbery. It's been tested to be the best and safest material and the most costly for children to run and jump on. Yoga is introduced to the children. Children and staff really enjoy this part of their daily routine. Teacher pupil ratio is small and individualized attention is stressed. We are below the ratio set by the Department of Education in all of our classroom environments.
Our computer program is quite extensive. Children have access to the computer in every class, and also in the multi-purpose room, where they can explore with the many programs we have. Our children work on a 3:1 ratio with an instructive teacher. Here, our monthly unit of study & curriculum is reinforced in the "cyber-world". Our main goal is to teach computer skills, help build self-esteem, and reinforce that learning is fun. All of our classes also have a computer for the children's use & exploration.
The cleanliness and maintenance of the buildings and grounds are quite noticeable. Our cleaning service does a great job - vacuuming, mopping and sanitizing the bathrooms on a daily basis at the end of the day. Inspection of the grounds outside and the interior are also evaluated daily. The flexibility of our programs is a strong factor. We make provisions concerning parents' work schedules. We accommodate them as best we can and our parents really appreciate this consideration. If a parent needs any extra day - it's not a problem. TLC given to ALL the children by ALL staff members is stressed by our Director and Administrator.
