Kindergarten

Kindergarten is considered a foundational program for five-year-olds, however, we believe that young children need to spend the majority of their time at this age at home and should not be overtaxed by a long daily school regimen. Because of this, the kindergarten program at CCA is limited to four days per week (Monday-Thursday) with a daily schedule from 8:15 a.m. to 12:00 noon.

Our curriculum in kindergarten lays the foundation for future academic success with developmentally appropriate readiness activities in all skill areas. In our learning-to-read program we use materials which employ a consistent phonetic interpretation of the written language. In math we emphasize both the grammar of the rudimentary number concepts with the logic of hands-on manipulatives to aid in understanding. We enlarge the child's environment through the discovery of nature and the physical world around him. We lay a foundation for relational learning through learning about and serving the communities in which we live.
