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.
