School Philosophy and Mission
"Creative Discovery Learning Center's program has been developed to provide rich and varied educational experiences to children. Our goal is to help children develop happy, healthy attitudes toward learning and to encourage high self-esteems. We achieve these goals by providing children with hands-on activities which are geared for each child's developmental level. We believe that Play-based learning increases children's chances for success with literacy, academics, and future life-long learning — a journey into active learning."

Being Savvy Today
The Wild Tangle of Grasses
If there was a single photo that could capture my feelings and thoughts about the past year, this would be it. It reminds me to keep looking toward the brightness of the light, even if I am caught in the wild tangle of grasses. This shot reminds me that
Montessori? Waldorf? Play-based?
What school type is right for your child? Is one model better than another? What does the research say?
View an example from the Savvy Source guide to learn more.
Today's “Preschool’s Out” Activity
Trace around your child's foot, with shoe on, on a piece of white construction paper or card stock. Have child cut out the shoe print and add a spooky face. Glue it to a popsicle stick and you have a ghost stick puppet!
