NEWS

“Week of the Young Child Celebrations”

We hosted our annual family breakfast as a kick off for this fun week of honoring our students. It was wonderful to see so many families show up. This is a very special tradition here at Great Expectations.

In honor of “The Week of the Young Child” we met lots of favorite stuffed animals and heard their story, then it was crazy hair day!!!

Next up – Music with Jeff Jam and a pizza lunch.

A school favorite is a visit from Marsha and Mark Wilson – Eyes on Owls show, and culminating in an all-school circle time with songs followed by popsicles.

Happy Spring!!

Welcome!

We believe children are natural scientists with a deep curiosity and desire to investigate and learn about the world around them.  A play-based curriculum provides experiential explorations in art, nature, science, sensory materials, cooking, music, dramatics, and early literacy and mathematics.

The development of a positive self concept is of prime importance, since feeling good about oneself has a direct impact on the skill-building and socialization process.  The child’s burgeoning independence and sense of self is nurtured in this supportive environment.
