Math and science concepts, art experiences, music, dance, drama, small group activities, class meetings, daily jobs and field trips will be integrated into our curriculum as well. Our TK program runs Monday - Thursday (Monday/Wednesday 1 - 4 pm and Tuesday/Thursday 12:15 - 4:00 pm) including a group lunch on Tuesday and Thursday.
