School Philosophy and Mission

Little Gator's goal is to provide your child with a supportive and stimulating environment which will promote his/her optimal physical, social, emotional and intellectual development. We believe the most important contribution we can make to your child's life is to help your child develop a positive self-image. The ability to feel good about one's self enables a child to retain their natural desire to learn. Children are encouraged to be themselves and show respect for their peers and teachers.

Typical Day-In-The-Life At This School

Two Year Old Program- Our goal is to introduce new concepts in learning through music,art,games, stories, cooking and other activities, while providing an environmentwhich feels safe and loving to each child.

Three Year Old Program- During this crucial period of intellectual development and strengthening of peer relationships, children are introduced to letters and numbers, social studies, science, computer, and fine and gross motor activities, in a style that shows learning is fun.

Pre-K Program- The goal is to prepare children for Kindergarten. Building on the concepts from the Three Year Old Program. An addition with more advanced worksheets, phonics, foreign language, and educational visitors, children enhance letter and number recognition and writing skills. The class is divided into small groups in order to meet the individual needs of each child based on their level of readiness for Kindergarten.
