Carmel Mountain Preschool

From the Director:

Give additional insight on the philosophy of your school's approach to learning here.

Describe how teachers work with children who are "behind," "excelling" or "different" from the majority of students.

A child's preschool years are among the most important years for literacy development. Our curriculum is built around a wide variety of activities designed to develop vocabulary, letter recognition, understanding of phonics and print. Teachers provide an enriched environment with developmentally appropriate activities.
