Welcome to Curtis Kindergarten, Preschool and Early Learning Center!
To Our Parents/Guardians:
Your child's educational journey has just begun. Successful first steps encourage a positive attitude toward learning and help build the confidence and skills they will need to succeed. The Curtis Kindergarten & Preschool staff is honored that you have chosen us as a partner in guiding those first steps. We provide a structured curriculum enriched by an atmosphere of Christian values and lots of love. To ensure we fulfill our responsibility to you and your child, we have mapped a course based on the following principles:

Learning should be an enjoyable experience for children.
A preschool program that incorporates academic goals with social preparation is essential:

To provide children with the fundamental skills and essential knowledge they need to become successful students in kindergarten, which includes skills such as reading, writing, mathematics, gross and fine motor skills,
In addition, help them become well adjusted, happy, and secure with their social life.

It is our responsibility to serve our students, parents/guardians, and community in a courteous, safe, effective and efficient manner.
School professionals should be given the opportunity to determine the individual needs of each child — social, emotional, physical, and intellectual — enabling them to make the most of all educational opportunities available in his/her school.
Parents/guardians are the primary advocates for their children and as such, are an integral and essential part of the educational planning.
Parent/guardian participation and consistent reinforcement of day-to-day activities — ensuring that their children are well rested, properly equipped for school, on time, prepared and ready to learn — is key to their learning success.

On Jan. 4 , 2010 We opened our Early Learning Center for Infants and Toddlers . It is housed in the former 'Little Building" which is right next door to the Big Building. The Lead teacher for Infants is Christina Frazier. The lead teacher for our Toddlers is Brittney Martin. Our wonderful cook for the ELC is Charlene Sivia. The Early Learning Center will have the same operating hours as our other programs.
Thank you for reading this information and familiarizing yourself with our policies, procedures, and every day life at Curtis.
Our hope is that you will join with us in this course to help your child/children have a positive and rewarding experience this year and in all of the years ahead.
