Our curriculum includes a comprehensive and ongoing diagnosis and assessment of individual growth and success of each student through the following:

• Social/Emotional Development including decision-making, identifying and solving problems, making responsible choices, sharing, cooperation with partners and groups, building relationships, respect for self and others, self-control, time management, sharing adult time and attention, self-expression, acceptance of others and change, persistence at difficult tasks, knowledge of ones emotions and management of those emotions through verbal conflict resolution and democratic solution.

• Physical Development and Motor Skills include opportunities for fine and gross motor skills such as writing, drawing, cutting, movement, balancing, etc. and print the development of visual-motor discrimination, auditory discrimination, and visual discrimination skills.  Children need continuous and varied opportunities to experience movement connected to thinking, showing and creating.

• Cognitive Development includes concept and language development as well as specific domains such as writing, literacy, numbers, math, science, social studies, and health.    A few components of cognitive development are  guessing, predicting, estimating, collecting data, measuring, manipulating materials through a variety of mediums, preparing and planning, creating, researching and developing theories, recording and presenting ideas, and self-expression through writing, drawing and performing.  The scope and sequence of the components and the integration of these components into curriculum is too great to list here.

• Conferences between the family and the teachers are held formally once a year to share observations and evaluate progress in the learning continuum of each student and teacher.  Less formal communication is welcome regularly and is a vital component of the learning process.  The family connection to the school is highly valued and honored.
