MESSAGE FROM THE DIRECTOR
Dear
Prospective Parents:
River Road Church Preschool Development Center is a school committed
to being a partner with parents in the raising of your children. Families'
values, customs and practices are respected and incorporated into the
developmental curriculum that we offer. Together with parents, we strive
to nurture and develop the children promoting respect, responsibility,
a healthy self-esteem and a life long love for learning.
The curriculum is based on the best in early childhood practices and
current brain research. We begin with sensory motor development, developing
- spatial awareness
- perceptual motor abilities
- visual discrimination
- tactile discrimination
- problem solving skills
- the ability to cross mid-line
that enable children to master the basic cognitive skills, such as
- matching
- grouping
- sorting
- sequencing
- one to one correspondence
which are the foundation of all the learning they will do the rest of
their lives. Through hands-on play, children are allowed to explore,
investigate, experiment, problem solve as well as develop important
social and emotional skills.
Parents are strongly encouraged to become involved in their children's
educational process. The school has an open-door policy. In the preschool,
parents are asked to come into the classroom for their own special day
to participate in the various activities of the day. There are also
many special events for parents to become involved in as well as serving
on a Parent Committee.
Involvement with the community is a mission of River Road Preschool.
During the year, children, parents and staff are involved with outreach
efforts to the community through the school's "All God's Children"
program.
If you would like to know more about our school, we welcome your contacting
us.
Sincerely,
Margaret Collins
