School Philosophy & Day in the Life

School Philosophy and Mission

"Children are action-oriented, searching, seeking, continually adapting individuals. Our Christian facility promotes high self-esteem, independence, and natural curiosity. Our curriculum is aimed to give each child the opportunity to
grow and develop spiritually, intellectually, physically, and emotionally.
At Kids Cottage, children will enjoy a safe and flexible environment as they prepare for their educational careers. Throughout the day the children enjoy activities that stimulate their minds and senses as they explore their
environment, make new friends, learn about God's world and develop their sense of self. In our child-centered program, children are guided through language concepts, communication skills, reading readiness, number concepts, physical coordination, science, art, music, dance, health and nutrition. Our children learn to love one another through the guidance of our loving teachers.
