Prekindergarten Social Studies
The prekindergarten social studies program has the children identifying and understanding how, within a community and around the world, we have needs in common and are also unique as to language, food, clothing, transportation and customs. We also create an awareness of the importance of sensitivity and love of those in our community.
Prekindergarten Creative Arts
Artistic expression is basic to an individuals's intellectual, aesthetic and emotional development. Children participate in a broad range of activities and mediums that will encourage an individual's creativity.
