Teaching Philosophy

​Federated Preschool
Philosophy
 
In order to grow compassionate, successful, justice-oriented people, we believe it is necessary to create a play-based learning environment that embraces and reflects the diversity of our world. Therefore, as educators:

• We respect the differences in each child’s development and work with them toward personal growth.
• We create an environment that recognizes and affirms the worth and dignity of every person.
• We promote positive planned and spontaneous learning moments to develop life-skills.
• We encourage children to do things interesting to them while we open up the possibility of much more while investigating, learning and playing.
• We model healthy and safe peer relationships that include independence, cooperation and positive social manners.
• We empower students to think outside of the box as we nurture their confidence, self-esteem, and curiosity.
• We provide an environment that develops academic kindergarten readiness.

 
These essential quality early experiences are the foundation for future growth and success within each unique child.​
