Director's Description to School's Approach to Discipline
We are pro-active. We use re-direction techniques. We use diversion methods. We communicate any behavioral issues with parents.
Director's Response to a Sample Discipline Scenario
Description of how teachers handle the following scenario: Child A and Child B are good friends and usually play together. One day, Child A decides to play with Child C and tells Child B, 'I don't want to play with you today. I'm playing with Child C instead.'
Positive social skills are taught. Children are surrounded by a Christian atmosphere of respect and loving appreciation for each individual.
Parents' Notes on Discipline, Health and Safety
Parent #1
The school is one of the cleanest and nicest preschools that I have seen. The classrooms are very large and have a small student/teacher ratio so there is lots of space to move around in. The classrooms are very well equipped and the playground is wonderful.
Parent #2
The facilities are fabulous! Wonderful, large classrooms and a nice, safe, clean, well-supervised outside play area.
