Assessments & Curriculum

From curriculum to teachers, our approach to early education inspires a love a learning. The Learning Objectives are introduced and repeated throughout the curriculum. They will find teachers who believe in them and give them the freedom to be themselves, try something new, and make new friends. Teachers track your child's developmental progress towards the Objectives in two ways.

• Our teachers perform ongoing assessments by observing your child within the Learning Centers and other daily activities and taking notes on his progress on a day-to-day basis. These assessments are not the traditional 'tests' or one-on-one assessments that an elementary school child might experience. We believe it is more accurate and feasible to observe early preschoolers' behavior and skills within a typical daily activity and context.
• They regularly monitor each child's journal entries and the work stored during the entire school year in his portfolio.

Teachers use the assessment results to build their weekly lesson plans, which help them keep track of the activities that they have chosen to do with the children, as well as the materials and literature that they need.
