The school is very academic and very structured. They are very clear about their program from the beginning and give a lot of information to parents so they are able to follow along with the program at home. They also promote creativity (for example, since very early they dictate stories to the teachers, bring show and tell). They teach the phonemic awareness beginning at age 3. They don't push pre-reading but they do want the children to learn. I think it is a good combination of structure and nurturing.
