The Orange Room Leaping Lizards
4K embraces the natural process of learning; our teachers nurture and extend that natural process, helping the children to prepare to meet the upcoming demands of not just school, but life. We create an environment where children can see the interconnectedness of learning and not just isolated kindergarten readiness skills. The teachers strive to make all learning challenging, meaningful and relevant, as the children experience the enjoyment of discovery.
Staff/Child Ratios
Our 4 year old kindergarten has one teacher staffed with 12 children or a maximum group of 18 children with two teachers.
