My Project

My incoming pre-kindergarten students deserve the best environment for learning and I aim to give them that. As we prepare for another school year we are so motivated and excited to give our new students the best learning environment that we can to promote learning. A cozy corner is where our students can play, learn, and explore in small groups, one- on - one, or when they feel the need to play alone for a little. These tools will also help students with transition time as well. As teachers we only want the best for your children and we will not settle for less!
