Parents' Comments

Christian Learning Academy employs the High/Scope Curriculum, which recognizes these critical thresholds. The curriculum relies heavily on active, child initiated learning experiences during which children plan or express their intentions; carry out their intentions in play experiences; and then reflect on their accomplishments.

â?¢Developing social skills through play, discussion and example.

â?¢ Learning to work independently and accept responsibility.

â?¢Bible stories with songs and crafts

â?¢Character Development
