learning, such as letters, numbers, shapes and colors are also
introduced in a relaxed and stress-free manner.
Daily activities include playtime, story and circle
time, art projects, singing, snack time, and gym games. Monthly
newsletters keep parents and significant others abreast on weekly themes
and classroom curriculum.
We have a ratio of one instructor for every 10
children. Staff maintains membership in the National Association of
Young Children (NAEYC) and has first aid and CPR training.

Children who attend Pleasant Dale Elementary School are
