Director's Description to School's Approach to Discipline
Our philosophy on guidance is based upon Love and Logic. Teachers and staff have received training on aspects of this approach which include giving the children choices in decision making to give them a feeling of ownership in the classroom.
Teachers also discuss with the children the feelings that they are experiencing and appropriate ways of handling emotions. Redirection is also used whenever possible.

Montessori? Waldorf? Play-based?
