Junior Kindergarten Program

Our Junior Kindergarten Program allows children to investigate their interests, make new friends, play, grow, learn about interesting age-appropriate concepts, and interact with teachers in ways that extend their thinking. A very strong feature of our program is that all of our teachers have a deep respect for the dignity of each child.
