Philosophy and Mission
Our Philosophy
Here
at Sand Hills Preschool, we believe that children learn in many ways, in both
structured activities and through play.
Our program is designed to meet the developmental needs of young
children. It provides experiences that
enrich and enhance each child’s cognitive, language, social, emotional,
physical, spiritual and creative development.
Within each classroom’s daily schedule, each child has opportunities to
create, to explore the environment, to learn problem-solving and personal interaction
skills and to learn concepts in a hands-on environment. It is our belief that children learn best
through a balance of self and teacher-directed activities. Opportunities for solitary play as well as
group activities are provided. Through a loving and nurturing environment, our
goal is to help each child gain confidence in his or her own ability and to learn
how to build positive relationships with other children and adults. We believe that parents are the primary and
most important provider of care and nurturing.
We believe parents and teachers are partners in each child’s care and
education.
