Our summer program offers the opportunity for children to come back to a safe, consistent environment with their friends and teachers. In the summer program we do not use Montessori materials, but we continue to use the same structured schedule. Each week has a different theme, such as community helpers, dinosaurs, music, etc. We do special projects and have special guests related to our themes. We spend as much time enjoying the outdoors as possible!! Our summer program will be offered Monday through Thursday from 8:30 to 3:30. We offer 1, 2, 3, or 4 day a week programs.

*There will be a classroom full of standard materials for children to work with-games, blocks, dress-up, etc. In addition each day will have special projects that children may or may not choose to work on; it is their choice- make a police badge, collages, special painting, etc. Also during the work period special guests will be invited to visit our classroom and share with us. These times do vary within the 9-11 period. |
