4s PROGRAM
The 4's program focuses on the development of positive self-concept. Group dynamics and problem-solving are emphasized as we nurture the child’s growth and development in preparation for his/her formal education in an elementary school setting. Teachers focus on pre-reading skills, writing, math, and science.
The 4’s program meets from 8:45 am to 11:45 am. Multiple daily options are available including a 3-day or a 5-day program. Early drop off and late pick up programs are also offered.
