Jack & Jill Philosophy
It is the philosophy of Jack & Jill Preschool that early childhood should be a time of fun, warmth, security, exploring, and discovery. Preschool children are creative and receptive. The staff strives to nurture and encourage these qualities in the children who attend. We believe that each child is a special and unique individual. Our purpose is to provide an environment that encourages social, emotional, physical, and intellectual growth and development of the child as a whole. The Jack and Jill Preschool encourages the young child to grow at their own developmental pace. Planned within the framework of philosophy and purpose, Our curriculum includes sharing and conversation time, stories, songs, finger plays, creative art activities, crafts, games, gross motor activities, field trips, food preparation, science and nature activities, exposure to shapes, colors, numbers and letters and multicultural experiences.
