Physical Development
With access to a fully equipped gymnasium, playground, and classroom learning centers, students will develop their gross and fine motor skills, visual and audio perception skills, spatial awareness, and safe practices in work and play.
Social and Emotional Development
Children experience emotional growth as they learn to respect authority, understand the feelings of others, and develop a healthy concept of self as one uniquely created by God.
