Nursery
Two Preschool
Program
Early
learning research shows that we have greatly underestimated what young
children can and should be learning. Small children are curious, and
they are born with a desire to learn.
Academics - We have a comprehensive
curriculum, A BEKA, that builds both strong
character and academic excellence. As you follow your child's progress
through the year, you will be thrilled to see your child learn the basics in
reading, writing, and numbers. We also teach patriotism and the true
meaning of holidays such as Thanksgiving, Christmas, and Easter.
Extended Care - We offer the
convenience of quality care from 6:30 a.m. until 6:30 p.m., so that your child
remains cared for in a safe, nurturing environment when the academic day is
completed.
Computers - Springfield Academy has a
twelve station computer lab and Spring 'N' Dale has computers in their
classroom to help children develop skills in technology and to enhance their
education.
