All of our Preschool Programs use...
The Creative Curriculum® for Preschool is an award-winning, research-based curriculum that features exploration and discovery as a way of learning, enabling children to develop confidence, creativity, and lifelong critical thinking skills. Comprising of The Foundation, six research-based volumes that provide the knowledge base of the curriculum, and the Daily Resources, which offer step-by-step guidance in the form of Teaching Guides and additional daily teaching tools, The Creative Curriculum® for Preschool is fully aligned with the Head Start Early Learning Outcomes Framework and early learning standards for North Carolina.
What is Conscious Discipline?
Conscious Discipline is an evidence-based, trauma-informed approach. It is recognized as one of the top social-emotional programs available to both schools and parents. Conscious Discipline is a social-emotional program that teaches children how to regulate and manage emotions in order to make safe and healthy choices.
NC Foundations describes Goals for all children’s development and learning, no matter what program they may be served in, what language they speak, what disabilities they may have, or what family circumstances they are growing up in. Teachers and caregivers can turn to Foundations to learn about child development because the document provides age-appropriate Goals and Developmental Indicators for each age level—infant, toddler, and preschooler. Foundations is a guide for teaching– a resource to define the skills and abilities we want to support in the learning experiences we provide for children.
