My husband recently got a new job, which left me in charge of morning drop-off. This school is COMPLETELY out of my way to work, but I love them so much, it's worth my 30 minute commute each morning!!\r
\r
They use the high-scope curriculum, which was taught to me at Texas Tech in my education classes. (I got my BS in Early Childhood Education.) Unlike the previous review, they are not negative at all!! In fact, as part of the high scope curriculum, they don't use negative directions at all. (i.e. - they say 'please walk' instead of 'don't run')\r
\r
My child is 3 1/2, but well advanced past some of the kindergartners in my own class at my school! \r
\r
They have a theme each week, have learned steps to resolving problems (Kelso), are committing nursery rhymes to memory, have focused on all the colors and are now on numbers and shapes. \r
\r
While driving home, my child will look at signs around town and exclaim (at the CVS) "There's C----'s 'C'" or (at Wendy's) There's a 'W' for W------!"
